I've just finished playing with the old computer PSU, its an old one not an ATX supply ($5 used). 5.19 volts unloaded. It sounds quite good to me.
The down side the fan is noisey and it interfers with the squeezebox especially noticeable during booting up of the SB. There is an unusal noise as the text scrolls across the screen. So I won't rule out switchmode supplies if the interference could be overcome. Seeing the original PSU doesn't have the problem I guess modern switchmode supplies are possibly better in this area. BTW: My test are not controlled AB tests like tomjtx. Its only me, and it takes at least a minute to go from one PSU to the other. regards -- Greg Erskine ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29058 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
