. Any low noise switching power supply with proper specs IE 5V DC regulated, Center positive, sleeve ground Connector: 2.5mm ID, 5.5mm OD, 11mm long Min supply rating: 1000mA. So as long as it outputs 5VDC with at least an Amp of current and is properly filtered (low noise) it will work just fine. The only thing better (and only slightly) is using a 6VDC battery with 10Ahr capacity or better which you would recharge over night after use (or as need be dependent on use). The slight advantage is it is absolutely clean DC power with no noise. Hence it is impossible to pass power supply or mains noise through to the SB3. I have a battery operated Pre-Amp that sounds just as good as a passive Pre-Amp but I doesn't lose the gain of an active Pre-Amp with the battery powered Pre-Amp. It has two batteries so one can be charging while the other is in use. . *iPhone* Media Room: ModWright Platinum Signature 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: Transporter, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Office: Touch with Vandersteen VSM-1s Kitchen: Touch in-wall mount w/ Thiel Powerpoint 1.2s Bedroom: Squeezebox BOOM Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Around the House: SliMP3, SB1, SB2, SB3 Ford Thunderbird: SB Touch, USB drive 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=108708 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
