Linn LK240
The Linn LK240 is a power amplifier from Linn Products. It shows up in period equipment directories and has left very little trace anywhere else. What is known is thin but real.
A 1999 directory listing in HI-FI Stereo (1999, p.88) places the LK240 as a 240-watt mono amplifier, rated at 240 W rms from 2 Hz to 50 kHz. It has a standby switch, a black finish, and a 5-year parts / 1-year labor warranty. The same listing gives dimensions of 12¼ × 3¼ × 13 inches, a weight of 18 lb, and a price of $1,200 (presumably each, given its mono configuration).
Beyond that listing, documentation is essentially absent. No circuit topology, input/output configuration, or production timeline has surfaced in the research to date. It appears to have been a straightforward high-power monoblock aimed at Linn enthusiasts building a multi-channel or bi-amped system, but that is inference, not record. If you own one and have the manual or any literature, the archive would be glad to hear from you.
