Features

CHAKRA amplifier technology

All AKURATE power amplifiers feature Linn’s proprietary

CHAKRA technology.

The CHAKRA topology uses an array of large bi-polar transistors as 'boosters' around a monolithic (single chip) amplifier IC (integrate circuit). Linn's execution of the monolithic to bi-polar transition is unique, and a patent application for the design has been registered. When output current is less than a few amps, all the power output comes from the monolithic IC, maximising the speed and linear properties of this design. At higher output currents the bi-polar transistors provide the majority of the output current, leaving the monolithic to operate well within its capability and able to correct any error instantaneously.

The topology is very compact, reducing the circuit area and length of the signal path and is also highly efficient, producing much less heat than traditional designs.

Switch Mode Power Supply

A Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) is incorporated into all

AKURATE power amplifiers. SMPS is an electronic power supply which converts and regulates the incoming mains voltage, and also provides the internal audio circuitry with excellent electrical isolation from the outside world. The SMPS replaces the bulky, heavy and noisy transformer and components normally found in convertional amplifiers.

The major benefits of SMPS over conventional power supplies include: small size, high efficiency, fast response, high mains input tolerance, good load tolerance, low acoustic noise and, with its much reduced material use, environmental friendliness.

Also, SMPS does not emit distortion into the local mains supply, as conventional large power supplies tend to do and if you upgrade from an amplifier with a conventional power supply to the AKURATE

2 AKURATE 2200

•

3200

•

4200 amplifier, aside from the benefits of the improved amplification, the sound of your entire system will almost certainly improve as a result of the cleaner mains supply.

AKTIV* operation

All AKURATE power amplifiers support AKTIV operation.

Standard 'passive' crossovers are driven by the audio signal itself and so some of the signal is effectively lost. AKTIV crossovers are powered by the SMPS (see opposite) and therefore much more of the audio signal is delivered to the loudspeaker. They are also able to exert a much greater degree of control over the signal and these qualities combine to provide a significant improvement in sonic performance over standard operation.

Your authorised Linn retailer can carry out the AKTIV conversion of any AKURATE amplifier channel with the insertion of a specially designed Linn AKTIV module.

Protection

Over-current protection

If the output current goes above the amplifier's designated safe operating level, the affected channels shut down instantly for a few seconds in order to protect themselves and the loudspeaker drive units to which they are connected.

Over-temperature protection

Similarly, if the amplifier's temperature rises above its safe operating limit, the affected channels will cease operation until the temperature drops to a safe level and will then automatically resume.

* The term 'AKTIV' refers to the proprietary Linn active modules and loudspeaker configuration.

AKURATE 2200 3200 4200 6.5 15/5/07 08:48 Page 11

Installation

Important:

It is strongly recommended that your AKURATE amplifier is installed and configured by an authorised Linn retailer.

Unpacking

Each AKURATE power amplifier is supplied with the following accessories:

• mains lead

• interconnect cables - cable type will suit amplifier's input connection (balanced or phono), one cable per amplifier channel

(e.g. 4-channel amplifier will receive 4 cables)

• warranty card

• this manual

Positioning

Ventilation requirements

Despite the efficiency of the design, your AKURATE amplifier still requires to dissipate considerable power in the form of heat. It should therefore be sited in a position that does not restrict the airflow around it.

For best results:

• The unit should be placed on a flat, stable and rigid surface.

• Allow at least 4" (10 cm) free space above and at each side of the unit.

• If the unit is sited in a cabinet, air must be able to flow through from front-to-back. An enclosed cabinet will severely restrict heat dissipation.

• Ensure that nothing is placed above or below the amplifier that might block or restrict the vents.

• Do not place anything directly in front of the amplifier.

MIN 4” (10 cm)

MIN 4” (10 cm)

MIN 4” (10 cm)

AIR FLOW

If the AKURATE amplifier has inadequate ventilation and/or is played very enthusiastically for a period of time, its temperature may rise above the designated operating level and the affected channels will shut down until they have cooled sufficiently.

Other devices

Ideally, your AKURATE amplifier should not be located directly above or adjacent to other heat-producing products such as radiators, other power amplifiers etc. If multiple amplifiers are being used and space is restricted, placing them side by side is preferable to stacking.

As with all hi-fi equipment, it is advisable to site your AKURATE amplifier away from (and if possible connected to a power socket on a different circuit from) powerful electrical or electronic products such as

TV sets, computers, cookers, fridges etc. This will prevent the possibility of the strong electrical and electromagnetic emissions or interference given off by such devices adversely affecting the performance of your amplifier.

Operation

General

The blue LED on the front panel will be dim when power is first applied and will remain dimmed when the amplifier is in standby mode.

Signal sensing

When an input signal is detected, the AKURATE amplifier is enabled and the LED brightens. In the absence of an audio signal, the amplifier reverts to a low power standby mode after approximately 20 minutes.

The signal detector is quite sensitive and if there is noise in your system, such as hum or hiss, it could trigger the detector. If this occurs, try to eliminate the source of the noise.

Protection

Operation

If an amplifier channel overheats or detects an overload condition, the power supply for that channel will shut down in order to protect the amplifier and the loudspeaker drive unit(s) to which it is connected.

Please note: all channels that are powered by that same power supply will also shutdown so more than one channel may be affected.

Duration

Once the condition that caused the amplifier to activate its protection has passed, the amplifier will automatically resume normal operation.

How long the channels remain in protection will depend on the cause.

If the protection operates for more than a few seconds, it could indicate overheating which may take some minutes of cooling to rectify.

A lengthier delay (10 minutes or more) could indicate a persistent overload condition (e.g. one of the units connected to the amplifier is faulty). Try switching the amplifier off at the mains for 30 minutes or so and try again. If it remains non-operational, consult your retailer who can examine your system and determine the source of the problem.
