I already have a 5V linear regulated supply in place of the walwart and am pleased with the improvement to the sound. The next step would seem to be to provide a well filtered 14VDC for the linear regs that supply the analogue stages.
Question 1: Does the switcher that normally supplies the 14VDC need a minimum load to function properly? The analogue stage uses approx 20mA. Question 2: The digital side of the DAC runs off 3V3 supplied by a switching PSU. Is there much/any benefit to be gained by using a linear PSU instead? Sean Adams suggested the possibility of using the headphone amp's 3V3 supply in an old thread. -- S-Man ------------------------------------------------------------------------ S-Man's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9593 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36495 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
