>From what I understand, this power supply is of a type called linear powersupply. The original one is a switching powersupply. These are two different techniques to convert the 110V AC (220V here) to 5V DC. The switching powersupply is a more effecient design than the linear type. The problems with switching powersupplies are that they introduce highfrequency noise into the curcuits that they power. And the audiophiles say that you can hear it, and that you should go for a linear PSU to get better sound. -- tomsi42 SqueezeBox2, Rotel RC-1070/RB-1070, dynaBel Exact. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tomsi42's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2477 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18660 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
