Replacement pwr supply for Aragon 24k


Looks like the ips gave up and I'm now in need of a replacement. The pwr supply is the standard piece that comes with this pre although the updated ips would work. Pity Mondial is out of business. Thanks and enjoy the music.

I had this exact preamp years ago. That outboard power supply is very rugged. The fact that some guy modded it is likely the reason it broke. But like i said earlier, something upstream might be flaking out and massively increasing current draw, But the linear regulation has current limiting built in. Have you checked the line(120v) fuse, of course unplugged?
didn't Klipshe buy out mondial?
I had this PS flake on me as well. The parts on this PS seem a bit small, and when I changed the verister out as directed by the past owner of Mondial, I also added a fatter power cord and the board couldn't support it. So it was the mod in my case, but the fact that the pre's next owner was used to handling only stage gear didn't help. :)

A nice piece that would work for you would be the Krell KPS. One mod
needed, as the KPS comes out via a multi-pin computer cable, and would
need to be checked as it has 2 pins +24v for Krells (sometimes) 2 power
channels; and would need the XLR to fit the 24K.
That's a nice pre and great to mod, till you get to the
PS. :)
Thanks again for all your replies. Steve at Klipsch asked about a fuse but I don't see one anywhere. He even looked at a schematic while I had him on the phone and he could not locate one either. Satch thanks for the link but it looks like the upgraded ips. I have the standard version which should be simpler. Spiro the Krell may be my next recourse if I can't find a ps. Stay tuned
Do you have the IPS or the standard, rectangular power supply?

Either way, my suggestion is to have it repaired.
