K2xv will not power on can anyone help!!!!!!!!!!!! Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2007-02-27 by AlexLewis

My K2xv (souped up K2000) will not power on.  At first it would power 
up and then just suddenly reset.  After it would sometimes power on but 
the LCD screen would b e blank.  Now it wo't power on at all, all you 
get is an orange light on the floppy drive.  any idea would be a great 
help.  If anyone can help me I would be forever grateful.  

You can email me at alexolewis3@...  

thanks for looking.

[vintagesynthrepair] Voce V3 Distortion- not the good kind

2007-02-27 by Brinkmann Music

Anyone familiar with these? They are loaded with CEM chips... Mine is distorting on all outs- the Leslie 122 out, the phone out, the main outs. The internal sound is distorted as well as from the input (running a Hammond M3 into the Effect Loop Input yields distortion on the Leslie 122 out). I even ran into a Leslie 21H with different cabling- same problem. Seems like the input stage is being overdriven on the V3?
Anyone?
TIA

Hi Alex

I had a similar issue on my K1000. It finally revealed to be a bad solder on 
the power supply.
To test it, gently hit solder after solder with an insulated stuff  (the 
grip of a screwdriver is perfect). In my case, the K1000 lit up as far as I 
hit the correct solder.
