iFi audio iPower - universal Ultra-Low Noise AC/DC adapter
Jan 1, 2020 at 6:22 PM Post #316 of 328
Can you please shoot us a PM here: http://support.ifi-audio.com/
Thanks for the reply and done, ticket #*** :)

I also got two AC iPurifier's that I thorougly enjoy so hopefully these won't die on me anytime soon.

I would also appreciate some pics and pricing regarding those 4A iPower's you seem unwilling to discuss about in public please.

I kept a spare unused 5V iPower that I was keen on injecting into the USB input of my DAC but I didn't see it coming that these gizmos could suddenly output +50% voltage out of the blue so I give up on this project altogether, too risky and will keep Uptone Regen as middle-man....its voltage regulators aren't all that noisy hopefully and at least they can take 12V, which USB inputs cannot.

So I got a reply to my ticket but none of the links in the emails to read it work and recovering my password doesn't work either, I can ask for a recovery link to the ticket but the link doesn't work either.

We'll ask our support staff about your ticket (please send it to us here on HF via PM).

When the time is right, we will!

I have a Musical Fidelity MX VYNL phono stage which is 12V 500 mA DC. I’m thinking of replacing the wall wart with either an iPower or a DC iPurifier 2. I am slightly concerned about some of the reliability issues that other people have had with the iPower.

Earlier in this thread the Sponsor has said that technically the iPower is the better product, in terms of reducing the noise floor.

However, a couple of posters have tried both an iPower and a DC iPurifier in their system, and preferred the latter.

Which should I go for?

iPower is more affordable, so that's something to take into account. But if you only have a regular wall wart, either's fine and should improve your phono.

Just got one as a token of appreciation from another member, plugged it into my surge protector then into my JDS Atom amp. Amp turns on then immediately off. Guess it won't work for me?

I think the Atom is 16VAC not DC. It went into protection.

My rme adi-2 dac requires 12v I think?
Whar would the ipower do for me, do I need this?

It is not needed for the RME ADI-2, the supplied one is enough.

I bought a cheap cd player to use as a transport into my Schiit Yggdrasil, but the yggy is complaining the source has too much jitter to operate optimally. The CD player uses a 9V external power supply, would an upgraded one help with jitter? Or does it just need a better clock?

To lower jitter you'd have to improve digital bits specifically, but it so happens that clean power supply is good for everything and might make a difference.
