Squeezebox Duet
« on: 2 May 2016, 02:43 pm »
Can anyone recommend a linear power supply for the Duet?  I have heard that upgrading the power supply makes a noticeable difference.

Please let me know and thanks!

I found the CI Audio option @ $279.00.

If anyone has a more budget friendly option to suggest, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

By memory there may be some Teradak units on eBay.

If you're looking for affordable units you likely have to troll the classifieds here, A'gon etc.

I found a used CIA unit that I am using for my Touch.  Great piece.

The 9v iFi power supply might be a very nice, low-cost match for the Duet.  http://ifi-audio.com/portfolio-view/accessory-ipower/

Caveat... I have not tried it, but have heard that the 5v works well for the SB Touch.

  IMHO an upgraded power supply sometimes makes my squeeze box 3 sound a wee bit better.
  I get much better results by connecting the SB3 to a good DAC. through the coax out on the SB3.
