It's shipped out today but will take quite a while to arrive I suspect. Just read the manual and it is in well written English. That's not right for Chi-Fi. Something MUST be wrong, Gary, LOL.Quote:

Fun with cables...
Very surprised by the sound Im getting from the Eversolo streamer I want to max it out, without being silly about it.
So a couple of things in the pipeline. :)
First up:
I recently got fiber to the home broadband, and a fancy new Router.
Currently its just plugged into the wall using the cheap wall brick supply.
I want to improve this by powering it from a linear supply, directly fed from the balanced mains.
To do this I'm repurposing a 7A Maplin CB radio linear supply I got back in the day to power my Beresford Dac.

Been sitting in the cupboard for years, time to be useful again!
Theres a Pot inside you can adjust so it outputs 12V, exactly what the new Router requires. WIll confirm with the Multimeter.
Just need to snip the plug off the Router cable end and solder to the Duelund cable, then connect it to the Maplin supply.
Will twist the two cores along its length to help reduce noise.
I bought 6m of Duelund tin plated copper PVC insulated 12GA mains cable to make up a mains lead, two terminal + and - from the PSU.
Love this cable, use the cotton dialectric 12ga version as speaker cable, not heard better in my system.
The Router is double insulated, so just a 2-core connection to the mains.
The 3pin plug from the Maplin supply connects to a star earthed distribution block, fed by one of the output tails from the balanced mains.
Very clean power, next to no noise floor.
Clean power always good practice. Everything is influenced by it’s power supply.
