Power Supplies Superline, SN2

Posted by: Paulie on 20 January 2017

In terms of a "next step" -

Would I get more impact by upgrading a Superline with a HiCap DR (going into a SuperNait2) OR upgrading the SN2 with a HiCap, and still powering the Superline via the SN2? I realise that the HiCap powering the Superline would only impact the sound of the vinyl; so the gist being, does the SN2 sound just fine without a HiCap? From reviews and other opinions, I've no doubt the Superline would definitely sound better being powered from a HiCap - but wasn't sure if I could achieve the same by using a power supply for the SN2.

Thanks!

Only one way to answer your question - test it in the comfort of your home. And choose whichever one works for you - don't let the others sway you crazy

I use the hicap dr on the sn2, in that way you always benefit from it whatever source you use.

I *think* I tried this once and found the HC on the SL was my preference (source first)..The SL is a hungry animal. That said, save up for a second HC...
