Musical Surroundings LCPS – Linear Charging Power Supply

Musical Surroundings LCPS – Linear Charging Power Supply

Michael Yee’s continued research into power supply designs has resulted in our Linear Charging Power Supply (LCPS). It was originally designed as a “no holds barred” power supply for charging the battery packs of our flagship Super Nova III phono stage. It is a “Classic Analog Power Supply” that uses a 50/60 Hz transformer, large storage capacitors, and low noise linear Voltage Regulators, all designed to achieve the goal of reducing noise for the best sound from an Audiophile Turntable System.

When used to power the Phonomena 2, Phonomena 2+, and Nova III phono stages, the LCPS will dramatically improve their sound by providing cleaner power and eliminating the noise from a Digital Switching Power Supply. This switching noise is higher in frequency than the audio signals and can modulate the actual audio signal. The Power Supply Voltages may also have the switching noise on them. A Digital Power Supply also radiates via Magnetic Field Emissions that can be transmitted to other components in the Audio System.
