I didn't use full Paul Hynes SR supplies. I ordered shunt regulators PH designed for the Buffalo I/V stage (I believe it was Legato II). I opened up the Shanti to direct-solder DIY Type-C cables to the PCB and upgrade the IEC socket, but didn't really take notes of the specific parts used. The stock cables and connectors are alright, but the mod is inexpensive and brings significant sonic improvement. What were the differences that you heard between the stock shanti and your mods?

Now that I have listened to the player powered by the Shanti, the old configuration sounds broken. It’s simply not on the same level. Thanks Link to comment
allo.com Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Yes Shanti can be used (and in fact it was designed) with USBridge Sig in mind Link to comment
shhQuiet Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Hello- having an issue with the Shanti and DigiOne Signature. I am currently powering the DigiOne with the supplied wall-wart for the dirty side and using the 1A Shanti output for the clean side. When I try to use the Shanti 3A output for the DigiOne dirty side, the RPi reboots over and over. I gather from others here that the Shanti should be able to power both sides of the DigiOne. How can I diagnose what is happening here? I am using RopieeeXL on the DigiOne. Thanks! Link to comment

JCB363 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Hi There. having an issue withe the Shanti powering my Digione and Boss player. SHANTI is unable to power up my Allo Digione [Non Sig model] or my boss player. I am using the 5V3A side, Shanti is turned on [red LEDs inside are on], the green light flashes 3 times, red LED stays off then shuts off and repeats on both models. When I switch back to my old PSU [Allo $15 5V3A] they power up and operate normally. Is anyone else having this issue? Wondering if I am missing something simple. Link to comment
allo.com Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Hi Can you check if the voltage on the back of Shanti is 230V or 110 ? (if its correct for your region) Link to comment
greyscale Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 Shanti is available from https://chicagodist.com in the US. greyscale Marantz 6007, PSB Image B6 & B5, Synology 216+, 2010 Macbook Pro Audirvana 3.03, JRiver. Link to comment

allo.com Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I have instructed the shipping dept to make sure that every shanti is sent with the correct voltage for the country (from tomorrow on) Link to comment
JanRSmit Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 My Shanti , after a couple of weeks use , its transformer started to hum, gradually more, so after 2 weeks, i shut it down. It is the only device in my set-up with a transformer that hums. Top bad, i used itcto power my qutest, and before it started to hum, i was quite happy. Link to comment

Looks like Sparkler made a nice workaround to make their DAC compatible with multiple types of inputs. It would probably work great with sources that have a high quality i2s output (can't say that about the RPi), take their S507 for instance. However, I'd much rather have the conversion unit built with proper power delivery and ample space inside the DAC compared to say, a small adapter on the digital cable. Maybe I'm too quick to judge, but I don't think this would be a sonic improvement in my setup with Digione Sig+Audiophile Pi. Link to comment
