Simplifi Audio - DSpeaker 2.0 ultra power supply
@Islandman2000-I had a conversation a while back with a guy who repairs Astrons and he told me to look at 7A or higher, apparently the build quality is better and the transformer is beefier.@Ozzy-The Astron is analog, that powers a digital device,...

I leave mine on 24/7...IMHO digital sounds better powered on all the time. 
12V deep cycle battery to power Trends integrated
@Dgarretson, OK I get it...if I didn't bridge the boards I could filter 2 batteries or 2 12vdc power supplies. Understanding that the filtering capabilities would be less.@Celtic66, All batteries will still send some noise down the line, since a c...

Dgarretson, In a 12v set up there is positive and negative, I assume you leave the center ground alone?Looks like this board would work well with a linear power supply also?Chris 
One or two subs
I had two subs and used a Dspeaker 8033s ($400.00) to control the room nodes. I'm now using the Dspeaker Dual Core 2.0 and can't believe how good the bass sounds.Just my 2c

Tim helped me extensively back in the fall of 2012. At that time he was learning about the many different and amazing things that the Dual Core can do, and passed on what he found out to me. I use my Dual Core as a full on dac,preamp, and room cor...

Ozzy, Give it a little time and put the wall wort back in and do a comparison. For sub only there might not be all that much difference. I use mine as a dac, room correction, equalizer, and preamp. Adding the Astron made a big difference across th...

Yes it does have a large transformer!I recently took over my daughters bedroom as my listening room, with no dedicated outlet in that room yet.. When I would dim the lights on the ceiling fan there would be a buzzing through the speakers. After I ... 
Simplifi Audio - DSpeaker 2.0 ultra power supply
@Ozzy, yes $100.00 new is a good price, I was including shipping in my estimate price.@Roscoeiii, Yes I was using the battery supply you mentioned. I bought an Astron for a TBI MG3 amp and the improvement over the battery was substantial, so I tho...

The Astron SL 11A is a 13.8vdc linear power supply. The Dual Core can handle up to a 15vdc input. I know this because I emailed Dspeaker and asked what the max input was. On the back of the SL 11A there are a pair of binding posts one red(+) and o... 
Simplifi Audio - DSpeaker 2.0 ultra power supply
In past threads I have made excuses for Tim only because the Dual Core 2.0 was a big hit and production was low. Dspeaker should be able to handle demand by now, but to not have an accessory that is exclusive to Simplifi is inexcusable!Contact Dsp...

Perhaps an email to Dspeaker in Finland will help.

Look into the Vortex Box products on the Small Green Computer site. The Vortex Box Audiophile unit looks to be a winner. I'm looking to purchase one myself when the funds become available.Good Luck,R 
Svs sub : should i go with sb13 ultra or pb 13
Which ever way you go consider purchasing a DSpeaker Antimode 8033c or 8033s to go with it. I have the 8033c on my 2039pc+, in the living room for HT purposes. The 8033c was the finishing touch that took the bass from very good to WOW!Good Luck
