Hi,

their power supply seems to be in need of improvement.

Hi,

it should work.

See here too.

Hi,

since using "hearing aid" I hear these loud cracks randomly too.

Thanks to you &  Peter for the hints to solve the problem.

Joachim

Hello,

the SUAOKI G500 dropped in yesterday.
The NOS1 is connected to the unit and the SQ improved a lot, more resolution and details. Never heard such a SQ in my room.

The power consumption of the NOS1 is 17W and with the usable battery load of 450Wh the operating time of the station is more than 25h before reloading.

The price is € 359,99 on Ebay Germany.

Joachim

The SUAOKI G500 should improve the SQ via the NOS1 & Audio PC.

Dartzeels preamp is working with an own similar battery powered solution and that sound is amazing.

Hi Peter,

maybe I missed the info:

RAM -OS still with W10 or ....?

Joachim

Hi Peter,

same here

with
 Max sfs=120
 Min= 10,00

Joachim

Funny operation results here.
It's the "Logging Activities" command.
Process ON -> everything normal
Logging OFF - > see pictures

Hi Peter,

my info was not complete, sorry

- XXH stops after each song in the "attended mode"

and by clicking NEXT
the

Message pops up -> see picture above.

Joachim

Hi Peter,

following problem - XXH stops after each song in the "attended mode".
Message pops up -> see picture.

I'm using no tablet, still playing from a PC.

Joachim

Hi,

my only logical explanation from what I'm hearing here is that the "HDPLEX 400W Hi-Fi DC-ATX Converter" seems to have a major impact.

Two years ago I used a laptop and replaced  the SPSU with a LPSU, and the SQ  enhanced obviously, and that is not happening now.

Joachim

Hi,
following test results with

1.   HDPLEX 400W Hi-Fi DC-ATX Converter + HDPLEX 300W AC-DC
1A. The power consumption of the XXH PC (with a Xeon CPU) is appr. 60 Watts during normal operation.  72 Watts with a „heavy load“ during converting/storing files in „Unattended mode“ into RAM
1B. The surface temperature of both components was appr. 40°C
1C. The improvement of the SQ was very audible compared to the original assembly with the (cooling fan) "Bequiet" PSU

The ambient temperature during the tests/comparison was 26°C

2.   HDPLEX 400W Hi-Fi DC-ATX Converter + 160 Watt HDPlex LPSU
2A. The power consumption of the XXH PC (with a Xeon CPU) is now  appr. 79 Watts during normal operation.  91 Watts at the worst case.
2B. The surface temperature of the HDPLEX 400W Hi-Fi DC-ATX Converter was appr. 40°C,  and  at the 160 Watt HDPlex LPSU appr. 45°C
2C. The difference of the SQ between 1) and 2) is  very subtle, and I can’t say in what direction and it needs more listening.

Conclusion:
The 200watt HDPlex LPSU should work with the HDPLEX 400W Hi-Fi DC-ATX Converter and the components under item 1) are a bargain and should satisfy the owners of the first XXH PC with a XEON CPU.

Joachim

Hi,

Peter is right. That "HDPLEX 300W AC-DC" is a switching unit.
The former PSU is a "Be quiet" brand with a fan.

The power comsumption of the first "XXH PC" is well under 60 Watts. I will start  "power consumption" tests with variuos operation conditions and will connect
a "160 Watt HDPlex LPSU" to the PC and compare the SQ during the day.

The combination with the "HDPLEX 300W AC-DC" presents a superior SQ to the former PSU at present.

Please accept my apologies for the false infomation concerning ..... !

Joachim

Hi,

yes, it replaces the original PSU installed. The present operating temperatures of the both components are well below 50° C, and stable.
This combination may not be that sophisticated as Peters design shown above, but a LPSU (tested with my laptop two years ago) is an abolute must for an audiophile SQ. The outcome is amazing.
