My message for all present Meanwell SMPS users.  The addition of the Sbooster Ultra for the UpTone Audio Regen USB Hub is a direct audible addition.

 

The Sbooster Ultra for the UpTone Audio Regen USB Hub is a switch-mode power supply add on based on active filter technology. Compared to the passive Sbooster Single Unit you will get with the Ultra an even greater crispness, tightness, distinctness and focus.

 

Due to the fact that the Uptone Regen (Amber) doesn’t need power at you can use the so-called Vbus2 Isolator which blocks the electric current at source.

 

In my case a Mac Mini I5 running OS from a SDHC card, internal hard drive deactivated as NAA  (=Network Audio Adapter software). And HQ-player running from another Mac Mini Server I7.

 

Sbooster Ultra special including the Vbus² Isolator for the UpTone audio Regen €79,50 or approximately﹩94,00.

 

Ps. I do not have any business interests with Sbooster company. The only agreement is that I also come from the Netherlands.

 

 

 

 

I have it too, it’s a an very good and relative cheap product (80 Euro). Better than buying an too expensive LPS.

I bought the ultraRendu, so I don’t need my USB Regen and Supra USB cable anymore. The USB cable is 8m. I sell the Regen without the standard Meanwell power supply. If someone is interested to buy one or both products, then contact me. Both items are in very good condition. I guarantee that both products are working fine!

why does the ultrarendu not need the Regen and USB cable anymore?

Because it is a network audio adapter (NAA) connected to my network with Ethernet and very near to my DAC. A very short USB cable connects the audio adapter to my DAC. This approach gives a better signal to my DAC and has some practical advantages too. But it is far more expensive.

and the regen between the naa and the DAC didn't make any difference?

No, the NAA is a having a kind of built in ISO Regen and other components for having a far better signal to feed the DAC than a USB cable with the Regen can provide.
