POWER SUPPLY UPGRADE KIT
for
SQUEEZEBOX Classic - SB3 - DUET
ON SALE 10% OFF

The Squeezebox has become a very popular streaming music player however it is packaged with a very wimpy and noisy switching power supply that inhibits its true potential. 

Our upgrade design incorporates a tightly regulated linear power supply featuring low noise Schottky rectifier diodes, low noise, low drop-out voltage regulator chips, Ultra low impedance Nichicon capacitors and a high-current-low-noise-split-bobbin transformer (get it? it's designed for very low noise). Our power supply measures less than 50 microvolts of ripple under full load resulting in very quiet operation with plenty of reserve current for good dynamics. Additional benefits are obtained with the use of a ceramic fuse, Vishay/Dale 1% metal film resistors, Wima polypropylene bypass cap, heavier gauge dc power cable and a detachable ac power cord.

The sonic results achieved include a blacker background with excellent low level resolution and detail, an expanded soundstage along with deeper and tighter bass.  The Squeezebox sounds pretty good stock, but our power supply will raise the performance to the level you demand!

Our new aluminum chassis measures just:  4.25"W(108mm) x 7"D(178mm) x 1.8"H(46mm)

All of our versions now accept detachable
IEC AC power cords
However the power cord is NOT included and must be purchased separately

-  New Compact Design
We've reduced the size so it now uses less space on your equipment rack.

-  Improved Transient Response
Our power supply is now faster resulting in better dynamics and reduced distortion during those demanding passages of music.

-  Heavy Gauge DC Power Cable.
A new umbilical cable provides better current transfer.

- Easier Assembly.
Our Squeezebox Power Supply Upgrade is one of our easier kits to assemble and we've now made it even easier to build. Stuff the circuit board, solder the connectors and it then slides right into the case!

- New Low Price
Yep, we've reduced the price!  Easier assembly for you means easier assembly for us so we can now offer our factory assembled models at a significant savings!

- Now Available with International AC Power Cords
High quality shielded AC power cords now available for most international destinations.
 

Assembly is straight forward.  This is one of our easier kits to build. All components are soldered to the circuit board.  Once the circuit board is assembled the rear panel with umbilical connecter and IEC connector are soldered to the board.  Then everything just slides right into the enclosure.  Following our detailed step-by-step instruction manual results in an assembly time of less than 2 hours.  If you would like us to build the kit for you, just add the SB3A or DUETA option (Assembly and test fee) to your order.

New AC Power Cord Options

You can now order the Squeezebox power supply upgrade with one of our stock shielded power cords, international power cords or try one our Welborne Labs Power Cable kits.  Click on the picture for more details about the Welborne Labs cords.  A four foot cable with outer jacket is provided with the upgrade.
