Agreed. The PSU1 gives a very clean low noise supply and makes a positive difference on every GSP unit I have owned. I have seen the transformer inside my PSU1 and it is a very high quality unit, not cheaply acquired or substituted.
I did the same thing as you with the DACMagic I had with a big linear (transformer) PSU to replace the AC wall wart. Fuller and clearer sound from the unit.
Better (low noise) regulation and capacitors have improved my digital sound from the Squeezebox Touch I use. The EDO and Toolbox mods helped a lot, well worth investigating if you have a compatible Squeezebox.

I too would be interested in a DIY kit.

Such a kit would be a very good learning exercise for me Graham. I might check out some of your kits in the future although I do worry that I could wreck some of my electronics if I make a mistake.

We make them to IEC60950 and they carry an IEC certified-body certificate no: NL-8023
http://www.gspaudio.co.uk/images/iec-certificate.pdf They are flash tested as part of the certification agreement. In my opinion a novice making this power supply could easily make something lethal. I have had plenty of 230V AC shocks in my life, and I am aware that one day one could kill me. I try to avoid contact with the mains! You should too (here I am referring to all who have asked). A death could easily happen to a constructor, and it would not matter if I printed a disclaimer, I would be had up for manslaughter. Ever heard of those accident solicitors? I am sorry, I will never sell any mains item as a kit. Other manufacturers are not as accountable. |
