A simple hdplex at 400 plus shipping gives you 4 outputs each completly isolated and one is variable. 

 

The 19vdc and the variable 19.5-5vdc share the same winding and rectifier in the HD Plex 200W so all 4 outputs are not seperated. I have one and Larry also confirmed this.

Sorry to hear that! I hope you'll get the replacement soon!

 

Well I hope so to as I was supposed to get the SR4 on 18th December but now it will be late Januari. 

Have all my system ready with PSU for network equipment, Netgear GS108 switch, SOtM SMS Ultra endpoint, Ghent DC and network cables. Ghent made a DC cable with 4pole male xlr (pin 1,2 -0V and 3,4 +Ve) that fits the SR4 so I am looking forward to driving the SOtM with the SR4 (using the original SMPS right now).

Glad to hear you don't have to wait 2-3 months for UPS to declare the first package officially lost. 

 

I think Paul deals with them about this so I dont have to wait.

"Your statement regarding delays with the SR4 is misleading as the only person with any significant delay has been Octaviars and this has been due to UPS having lost his shipment. I have set aside a replacement unit from the next available SR4 batch for Octaviars to avoid the long wait while UPS decide whether they can find his power supply or not."

 

 

As Paul writes the delay on my SR4 is only because UPS lost the package. Nothing to do with anything else, and from the day I placed the order and payed everything went as planed.

You that have any of Pauls PSU what do you think the burn in time was in your system before it had settled down?

 

UPS might have found the lost SR4 so hopfully it will arrive next week.

I ordered one from the next months batch and received it within 2 days of stated shipping date. I am very happy with it. 

 

Did you feel that the SR4 needed time to burn in or did it perform well right out of the box?

Haha

paul do not answer emails quicker than 1 week , i wonder how you got your order .

 

Are you being serious.... 

 

When I bought my SR4 he answered my questions often the same day and more than once a day. I sent him PM:s here on CA.....

 

You can believe that if you want to but my inbox have all of Pauls answers left.

 

Regarding how he treats customers that bought a SR7 I cant say anything about that but I had no problem buying a SR4.

Puts my tweaking in a different perspective. 

 

Thanks, I think I might connect my SR4 to a load and lett it burn in for a couple of days before I try it on my SMS ULTRA. 

 

I some how feel the same regarding hearing changes in my system since I got my TAD system, it just sounds really good :D so my tweaking have settled down a bit.....

If it's any help, I received a prompt reply from Paul last week regarding status on my SR4. He told me it was going through QC on Wednesday and should ship shortly thereafter. Hopefully I'll be getting a shipping confirmation at the beginning of next week.

 

I got a shipping date from DHL and my SR4 will leave Paul tomorrow. Cant say I have anything but good things to say about Paul regarding buying the SR4 from him.

For a SR7MR4XL with two 6A modules and two 3A modules, meaning 18A of continuous current, I take it to mean  that a power strip distributor must have the capacity to have a maximum current rating of 18A or more? The only power strip I found capable of delivering up to 20Amps of continuous power that's somewhat transportable is the Shunyata Venom PS8.

 

 

That is the power on the DC side on the AC side the amperage is much lower.

Would a soft start circuit help in this case without detriment to the chain.

 

I dont see how a softstart circuit would do any harm.

There are some finished ones to buy.
