Where could I buy a relatively cheap linear power supply solution to replace the stock cable? I have no DIY-abilities of my own for a project like this. Does anyone else make or sell these at a reasonable price? Already know all the arguments from cable-naysayers, so not really interested in those types of comments, or their comments to this comment. :) Just would like some non-snarky alternative cord suggestsions.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Any experience with the Best of Two Worlds Solution supply
Hi, according to a friends hint i ordered a used ZIP Drive (100MB) to use it's PSU for my Touch. Costs are not worth mentioning and the effect is great :) The hints according avoiding of RF interference are for sure correct, but no reason not to try out something which is in most (i would say all) cases better than the original supply regarding the result ;) If the best-of-two-worlds was even designed especially for the Touch this might be the perfect thing. -- MRinus MRinus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44629 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81712 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Any experience with the Best of Two Worlds Solution supply
Finally managed to finish building a Sigma 11 power supply. All I can say is WOW. I can now hear layers in the base on Pink Floyd tracks and the image was instantly more three dimentional. All this is going to depend on how revealing your set up is to start with. I discovered power cords about a year ago and wished I had tried one 10 years ago. The power supply to my Touch is a bigger improvement over just having replaced my Odyssey 4 for Epic Super Twin by a long, long way. All I will say is dont knock it until you have tried it. -- Flashgordon400 Flashgordon400's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38059 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81712 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Any experience with the Best of Two Worlds Solution supply
The power supply supplied with the SB will have to pass the most stringent requirements in the world to be sold within the EU. Unless there is a fault with your PSU, you are being conned. The Hifi business is full of conns for the terminally stupid who can hear differences depending on what time it is. It's down to science and little else. A SMPS does radiate and if your system picks it up then a simple rewriring can sort it. A linear PSU can also radiate if badly designed. -- Waldo Pepper Waldo Pepper's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39029 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81712 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
