Power supplies and cables - observations, considerations & commentary

[Kilauea50]

Is there any long term ill effect on micro Rendu if running the unit on 9Vdc? The recommended power supplies are mostly at 7V on sonore website.

I am running the device at 9V and it is a little bit hot to touch. Would it cause it to age and break down faster?

 

I run mine on 9v but also have a small fan running on low and it stays cool.

Wow. Just to be clear, are you saying that you found the sound of the ultrarendu powered by John Kenny ISO-PS is clearly superior to LPS-1? This is very notable. Can you please elaborate.

I switched the LPS-1 from powering the uR to powering/charging the ISO-PS battery.  It is a continuous charge and yes, it is absolutely superior sonically to the LPS-1 powering the uR.  I also have the ISO-Dac/ISO-PS combination and the whole setup provides the blackest background I have ever heard and it isn't close.  The whole dynamics of music changed.  I am hearing music and details of music as I never have before.  Ciunas allows a 30 day trial which is what made me decide to try it.  I knew immediately that I would not return it.  Now I have an ISO-Regen to sell too...lol

That PS is 3,3 V. Did you serial connect the to outputs ?

 

How long lasts the bareries before rechage ?

The battery powering the uR has 2 separate channels at 3.3v each providing 6.6v of power.  John sent me a 5v 4amp power supply to use to power/charge that which of course is connected to the uR.  I think the uR takes a bit more current and this setup works beautifully.

Just the stocker right now but have been looking at the options.  Thanks for that link

Can you post some photos of your setup if you don't mind 

I sure will.  I will take some tomorrow morning and post them

I haven't settled in yet on cables so it is messy but here it is:
