    Purchase a power supply for Kserver-5000

    Good day Fourm, My power supply for my KSERVER-5000 has died. When I opened it up and removed the power supply I was surprised to find a Cooler Master Green power supply inside. I haven’t read that KS used that brand. I took it into a local computer shop and they didn’t see any capacitors...

    Very cool. I’m a computer guy and just thought it was interesting. I have it apart to see what I can do with the power supply anyways. Thanks for the information.

    Kserver-5000 Power supply & Ram

    Good morning Forum, Recently my server would not power up and likely the power supply. It was interesting to see that it was a Cooler Master 600W power supply inside. I've been looking at different options and brands. I have been eyeing up BeQuiet Dark Power 750W. Does anyone have any...

    Best ways to preserve our Premier components?

    I personally turn off the power to all my components when not in use and haven’t had an issue. Once a year I pull components and physically open them and blow them out in my shop. Trying to preserve the system.... Recently contacted K to order new power supplies for Kplayer 5000, M500’s...

    Kaleidescape / Itunes

    I'd really like to use K for all my music Mark. If it could update track names like Itunes does I would.

    Kaleidescape / Itunes

    If the wifi could be turned off and it was wired that would be great. I've been having a look at the Denon Halo system and Bang Olufsen. Not sure how compatible BO is with itunes. Seamless ipad control would be nice.

    Kaleidescape / Itunes

    Thanks Rav & Mark. I like sonos and use it in a few work places. The Linn speakers are beautiful. The interface is great on both. I don't like that although you can hard wire the speakers in sonos there is no way to turn the wifi off. I'm trying to have everything in the house wired...

    Kaleidescape / Itunes

    I'm at a standstill for importing music into K and not sure what road to take. It's unfortunate that K can't update metadata like itunes on single unknown tracks etc. I love the idea of having multiple zones and the ease of importing but not it's feasible with a large collection of music to...

    Music Database Updates

    I was wondering how the music database updates unnamed tracks? Yesterday for the first time I started importing CD's. Some CD's I burned from music I purchased years ago on itunes and are a mix I personally made others are regular purchased CD's. All CD's import just fine but with zero...

    Premier Software upgrade to 8.0.0-17584 on September 5

    Curious. I'm a new owner of a used 3U. I've registered it with K but never opt in on Disney personally. If the previous owner did would that effect my system and how would I know of they did?

    M700 DIY Fixes?

    On the topic of importing and since I have been putting together a system on a bit of a budget I found an M700 which is located a few hrs away from me on ebay. It looks like it's missing it's blue ray drive from the pictures. They are asking 3K for it which is a joke (IMO) and I was going to...

    Amber Power Light 3U

    Thanks, I called and I have two more drives that need to be replaced, although it seems fine now. They sure are helpful at K support. Feel guilty asking them for help as I purchased a used system. It's unfortunate I can't trade up with my 750 hard drives. I think the 6TB are around $1000...
