That's it. The new PSU will be sold as an optional extra. I might even make the standard power supply an optional extra. My reasoning is that with so many people getting a different power supply for the DAC, I could save them some money on my power supply if they are not going to use it.
Waste not, want not.
You guys think that is a good idea and way to do it?

It sounds like a good idea for those familiar with your DAC, but may be a frustration for new customers buying on the basis of the reviews you're getting in the press. It might be good to offer the PSU as standard, but offer a discounted price to those wanting the DAC without the stock PSU.
I would definately appreciate being able to buy the 7510+ without the standard supply and with the upgraded supply. Not just to save money but its the sheer waste of a supply which will just end up in the bin.
Well the beta buyers are getting the current PSU or wait till March.
I shall start contacting the beta buyers who have shown interest so they can have their order dispatched some time next week once I have done final QC check on each one before I send them out.

Stan,
Making the power supply an optional extra would suit me. I already have a very good power supply.

I'd prefer to wait for the PSU update, too. That way I can get the new DAC and sell the old DAC complete with a working PSU.

I think giving the PSU as an option standard/upgraded/none would be a good idea.
I've changed to the Maplin one too.
