I know this has been discussed before, but all the threads somehow end with "I can't get this damn thing open anyway!".
Well, I was able to do exactly that. Had two broken LC1s, disassembled both, fixed one using parts from the other. Worked fine so far...but it's somewhat missing the real challenge. So now I want to try to revive the second one.
The repaired unit had a bunch of very high ESR caps, a dead triode and a shorted diode. Haven't really checked the other one yet, but there is already a first problem: The diode. It's a SMD-part and the only mark is a single blue band. Every other diode in there has a black band - so is suppose this isn't a ordinary diode, but maybe a Zener?
Is there anything like a schematic or even a service manual for the LC1?
