Frequently Asked Questions
Are other enclosure colors available?
Our stocked colors currently are red and black. Clear anodized aluminum is also available with an extra 7-10 day lead time but no extra charge. So
if you don't mind the wait, we will be more than happy to provide this color color.
How long is the umbilical cable?
The upgrade is shipped with 5 feet of umbilical cable. If we are assembling the Squeezebox upgrade for you, please specify your preferred length up to 5
feet.
Will the Squeezebox Power Supply Upgrade work on international voltages?
Yes, 115V and 230V operation are available.
What is the amperage rating of the supply?
Our power supply can provide up to 3.5 amperes of current. I believe the Squeezebox 3 requires 1 amp, earlier versions may have been spec'd 1.5 amps so
our upgrade has plenty of headroom.
Seems like a lot of money for a linear supply, how come so much?
Well our upgrade is not a typical linear power supply. From the circuit topology, circuit board layout and parts selection it has been designed for
super low noise operation. Plus, you get a
nice enclosure that is pre-punched, all shielded cabling and a step-by-step assembly manual... that's worth a little extra don't you think? You can find
an off-the-shelf linear supply at your local surplus house or in the Newark Electronics catalog for $100 or less but it won't have the features our supply
possesses, it won't necessarily be low noise nor will it sound as good. |
