Happy as a Pig in Schiit: Introducing Modi Multibit
Apr 10, 2017 at 12:07 PM Post #3,046 of 4,588
Hi,

I just bought a second hand modi multibit from a headfier, this is a 110v model and i need some 210v as i live in Europe.

I was wondering if this adapter would be ok ?

It doesn't convert the voltage to 210v, but maybe the ac adapter from the modi is able to switch itself to 210v ?

Thanks folks.

I really look forward to hear that multibit schiit !

I think all you need to do is to buy 220v wall wart and that's it. It's like $10 direct from schiit.

I see, thanks !

I guess all I need is a wall wart that has the same plug as the modi, as i can buy one at my local store, correct ?


And other things like voltage - you can find it on the wall wart you have. Check with schiit Europe - they should have them in stock.

I finally pulled the trigger on this. The black one was too enticing. Even if I don't like it or don't need it later I know I can sell it easily!

 
I think after giving it a try you will like it then decide that you need it!

The wallwart is AC. Most AC adapters are DC. You really want the right one from Schiit. 


Nah, there are plenty of wall transformers (ac/ac adapters) out there, just pick one with the right connector, voltage and power rating, however if the price ends up about the same I don't see a reason not to buy one from Schiit.

The plug adapter you linked will not work.  You either need a step down transformer to convert 210V to 110V or you need to get the appropriate power supply/wall wart from Schiit or one that puts out the exact same power as the Schiit one.

My Audioengine D1 died.  I decided to take a step up the DAC driving my Audioengine A5+'s ...




Thanks for the positive vibes that pushed me this way folks! :)
pat----

How does it sound with the D5+'s? I'm looking into getting speakers and I'm considering the D5+ with a Modi Multibit. Another option I'm considering is LSR305's connected to Modi Multibit either via a SYS or a dbx goRack. If anyone has any other ideas, I'd be interested in hearing them. Thanks!
