Hi Gary, Interesting. It'll have to wait for now though. Had to send the loan amps back to Jon today. Plugged my old kit in last night and tried it out. Beth Gibbons now sounds like she's sitting in the corner of the room with a blanket over her head. Just hope my new stuff turns up soon. Apparently people at GSP are on holiday! How dare they! |

I'm just wondering if you, or anyone else, can tell me what I can expect from these power supplies on my SqueezeboxTouch. Do they come with a sale or return guarantee? I would also welcome any suggestions about any other power supplies that people may have tried and can recommend.

My Touch sounds more substantial with tighter bass and I can hear more of the ambience on some recordings. I replaced the original PSU with my DIY one some time after installing the EDO and Touch Toolkit software and thought the level of improvement was comparable.
Can anyone else share their experiences to help Phil with this, please? |

The Squeezebox Touch sounds passable with the stock supply, but with a decent linear PSU it becomes a very capable music player. And that's using the analogue outputs. I use a Squeezebox Touch as a transport into A N Other DAC, and I can hear the differences between using the stock PSU and the linear PSU - the linear wins out every time. I don't really do all the flowery audiophile descriptive stuff, but a decent linear PSU makes the sound more substantial. I also use the linear PSU to power my EMU0404 USB recording interface, and the noise floor of the recordings I make becomes audibly lower. The amount of low level detailing has increased, and the dynamic range of the recordings is increased. Some say it's all just 0s and 1s. I disagree. With regard to trying stuff out I believe that distance selling regulations are very much in force. Edited by Chris Firth - 09 Aug 2015 at 8:11pm |

The Squeezebox Touch in my main system uses a Mark Grant Squeezebox Touch Linear Power Supply + the Advanced Digital Output app =>Lautaus coax digital =>Majestic DAC. Music quality with FLAC files into the same DAC sounds slightly superior to the CD transport and source material is almost indistinguishable from vinyl where I own the same recordings.
It is quite a long time since I added this to my system and it was after purchasing the Majestic but I do recall being very happy with the improvements it brought. Combined with the Majestic, music has none of the sharp edged harshness often associated with a digital source and I have no desire to upgrade any further. (The PSU is housed in a substantial non-metallic box, in a similar fashion to the GSP PSU1.) |
