I use the C.I.A psu i used for my SB3 it provides slighly less amps than the one delivered with the Touch but i do not intend to use any USB drives. So it works fine. I don't use headphones or the analog out either (only spdif). If you want to everything at the same time you probable *must* use the original psu or a more powerful one.
Duras find is quite interesting can you use more power hungry drives with an higher spec PSU ? I don't want to rain on anyone's parade but you might burn up some tiny circuit board traces instead ? Is it plausible that the 5v goes just straight out to the USB port ? without any regulator in between ? Btw you do void your warranty if you do things like this, you should be prepared for some "learning by burning" otherwise use the stock psu. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE for the rear ch.
