PSU for QuteHD

Well I am going to for it and get a Linear PSU for my Qute even though I tried to convince myself early on it was not necessary.

I really am digging the QuteHD especially since I took a dive into the wonderful world of computer audio.

So I narrowed down my choices to the King Rex and the Channel Island PSU units.

The King has a 48VA transformer while the CI Audio is only 35VA but I have no clue what that means :)

I like that the CI is made here in my home state of California and it is $100 less.

I don't see a lot of mention of CI Audio on this forum but if anyone has experiences please chime in. Thanks

Hi,

The QuteHD is 2V output but seems more based on my volume control.

I went for the CI VDC12 kit and am very impressed too

The build quality is excellent and was just what I wanted.

Hooked it up to my QuteHD, and wow, it really does unlock the full potential of this DAC. It has definitely "smoothed" things out taking out some high frequency harshness which brings out more sharpness and details.

Even though everyone swears by these linear PSU' I did not want to believe it but now I am a believer.

Another great bang for the buck product right there with my lightspeed attenuator :)
