If the SB3 is drawing 6 watts, I don't see how a 1 amp power supply will be sufficient. I'm not an electrical engineer, but I am assuming that the SB3 will use slightly less power if either the headphone jack or the analog jacks are not in use (your case), although I would be suprised if it put out more than 1 watt RMS into either under load. Even so, adding another watt to the sum brings our total to 6 - 7 watts. -- jonheal ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jonheal's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2133 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18491 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
