Hi, newbie here, so pls excuse the cross-posting... I've just got a (wireless) SB3, and was following the thread re improvements when using a linear power supply to replace the stock switching power supply. Folks have recommended the Elpac WM075-1950-760... so I tried that model, but, given the results, I'm willing to wager that the SB3 sometimes needs 2amps, while the SB2 made do with less...Bottom line, I haven't gotten the Elpac to work. The Elpac is rated at 1.5 amps. When it's connected to the SB3, for me, the display flickers and is dim... and the rest goes downhill from there...(and yes, this SB3 has the latest firmware). Has anyone had luck with the Elpac and the SB3 (as opposed to the SB2)? I've measured the output w/ my meters, and it seems to be working OK.
Sure enough (kicking myself, should have looked first): the switching supply that comes with the SB3 says 1.5V, 2 A output... So: anybody have any recommendations for a linear power supply for the SB3 - doesn't seem as though Allied has a 2amp one... thanks PS: I have found that by-passing any pre-amp stage does indeed, as expected, do wonders, as do several outboard DACs (though the DACs have made less of a difference, IMHO - I have tried the Benchmark; the Audio Aero Capitole, and the Esoteric DV50s -- all upsample to 192khz...) -- rcb ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rcb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2830 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=16245 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
