The Problem is from where i live i am not able to find a step down transformer from 230v to 100v. All i was able to find was from 230v to 110v

Why would the fuse pop when using inverter? it's still only 12v DC output, regardless of what is AC voltage in the input.

Centre must be negative as per image on back of energiser.
If you reverse the dc the circuit will blow hence the fuse pops to protect internals.

Ifi's inverter turns their power adapter into center negative

I use this one:

And if you use unregulated psu, the voltage will dip below 12v dc and fry the fuse.

How does a lower voltage cause damage? Do you mean higher?

Unregulated will swing based on your mains swinging... If the mains swings upwards, then the 12v unregulated swings upwards causing the energiser to pop as current draw is much lower..

Thanks for the Suggestion BenF. The Problem is i already ordered the ifi power adapter 12v.. I guess some one suggested me that i'm not sure.

Now, Do i need to cancel that order and order the kashimura step down transformer

OR

Will the ifi power adapter will work for sure. It fitted almost all the description.

I have a new unopened system sitting in the home i don't wanna blow the fuse first time by plugging it incorrectly.

Polarity-wise, iFi should work.
You should ask iFi's support if the plug will fit too.
If yes - I'll be buying some too.

I have asked their support. Still no response yet.

I will let u know if i get a response.

what I did is usinh a 10Ah 12V battery, (mind polarity as percabove!). You can listen 24/7 before recharging, and - obviousley - no ac components. Sounds great.

A car battery?

I got a reply from the iFi Support team and they said it is 5.5 X 2.1 mm which are the same as the srm-252s energizer.

Should be perfectly fine then.

I bought the L3100 system a couple of days back. The positive impressions in this thread being one of the reasons behind the purchase. I have the driver connected to the line out of my Fiio e10K currently, and I love it so far (without any burn-in). Will I see any form of improvement over the Fiio, if I upgrade to say a Modi or some such DAC?

I noticed these headphones detect any flaw in the upstream from interconnects to dac's everything is audible.
Very high resolution...
Very happy listening ..
