Yes you have read those, but not one is backed up with any measurements or data. Just that "They" think its night and day now. If I just spent as much as the Touch costs just for a Power Supply, I might think I heard a Night and Day difference too. Why would you put any stock in statements based on nothing but somebody's impression that is foolish enough to pay hundreds of dollars for an external power supply for a component that only costs $300? woodnut;570366 Wrote: > I do intend to use a shielded mains cable for the power supply.

On any DIY, I prefer a metal case that is grounded so as much interference as possible is taken to ground. woodnut;570366 Wrote: > I notice that some schematics inclde a slow blow fuse. Since its a DIY, you need a fuse for sure. But in my opinion you need a fast blow. At 3 amps on a small regulated supply, there shouldn't be any large inrush of current. Start with a fast blow. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Wood Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1, Vandersteen V2W Subwoofer Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Squeezebox BOOM Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79977 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
