fast density Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I have 2 studio monitors and a streamer, all with smps, and very power consumption, like under 30 watt each. Smps devices pollute the power system so one needs power socket / Filter with individual filtering for each socket. I am interested in surge and spike protection to prevent the smps from running hot (we have a lot of Voltage variation here). The filtering / protection must be very sensible cause smps devices need instant current and usually sound less dynamic with filters. Any advice? Would like to stay below 700 stones...

fast density Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 I have found a budget voltage regulator https://www.amazon.de/APC-Automatic-Voltage-Regulator-1200VA/dp/B0000C88CR/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1477209396&sr=8-1&keywords=APC+le1200 For individual filtering I might try lessloss firewall v2 - many positive reports from devialet users Still, if one finds a lightweight (under 5kg) budget all in one solution - please report!

beautox Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 SMPS are quite tolerant of power supply voltage spikes/surges. For instance, many SMPS will be rated "100V - 240V" input, so you can use the same smps if your mains is 120V or 240V. And they won't run any hotter on 240V than 120V Agree with you re: smps potentially polluting the power supply. But you don't need to wory about spikes and surges. Director Mad Scientist Audio Ltd.
