Linn Linto Brilliant power supply interchangeable with Linn Karik Brilliant power supply ?

Hi
My Linn Linto pohono stage has a Brilliant power supply that went to heaven.
I also have a Linn Karik CD transport which also has Brilliant power supply in it. Since I don't use the Karik I considered cannibalizing its PS. 
Are the 2 Brilliant interchangeable ? If yes, does it depend on year model ?

It's all about matching voltage and current, and I doubt that a phono stage and a CD transport would have identical requirements, but it's possible.  Also, why not ask Linn?  In fact, definitely ask Linn before taking any advice here.

I just talked to Linn Support. The two are different Brilliants. Same PCB but different components and Voltages.

I hope for your sake that neither is a 13V supply.
