I bought this power supply to replace a stock one that came with an audio component. The audio improvement was immediately evident when I switched to the iPower supply.
iPower
Max power.
When is a plug not a plug?
When it’s the iFi iPower.
Effortlessly powerful.
If your system’s power supply is unclean, background noise affects your sound quality.
The iPower cleans this up, addressing the problems at both the output and input stages.
It makes your sound flow cleanly and effortlessly.
The power of four.
The iPower has four barrel tip adapters, which means it’s compatible with all wall pin types across the world (UK/US/EU/AUS), as well as USB and centre negative audio adapters.
Music. TV.
Whatever you’re listening to, the iPower smashes through the sound barriers that hold devices back from achieving clear, uninterrupted sound.
Adapt to change.
The iPower makes music come alive with incredible low-floor noise and adds detail originally lost through conventional power supplies that are often just mobile phone chargers that have no regard for quite power.
The iPower is at least ten times quieter than previous iFi power adapters, twenty times quieter than audiophile linear power supplies and one thousand times quieter than standard wall adapters.
At home or abroad, there’s nowhere the iPower can’t go.
Audiophile-standard DC power supply.
Works with virtually any DC powered device.
Just check the correct voltage (5V/9V/12V/15V).
Quiet! Active Noise Cancellation+ (ANC) at work!
Exceptionally quiet power. The measured noise floor is 100x quieter than the Common Noise Filter.
Light and convenient to use.
As it comes in 5, 9, 12 and 15 volts and with pins for the USA, United Kingdom, Europe and Australasia, it can be used all around the world.

It Works
From being sceptical and expecting any difference to be minimal or inaudable I an delighted with the improvement to the sound. A much more spacious sound with instruments and vocals having a more solid presence in the room.

Worked Well
Used a 9v version iPower Low Noise DC Power Supply to power a Matrix X-SPDIF, it worked very well and I’m happy with the results.

Clean power at low price!
Clean power from a wall wart. It works. Instead of buying a costly linear power source for equipment, get one of these at one third the cost. My SMSL M8 sounds must better now compared to when I used its original power source.

Just buy it.
Knocked my socks off when I used it on my allo digione player. Worth every penny! I’m not kidding. I thought it was hype, I was wrong. Made my digione sound like $500+ audio equipment. It made the individual sounds more distinct and clean, guitars more crisp, and the soundstage less compressed. It made music sparkle. I know this sounds fanciful, but I just can’t describe it an other way.

A major sonic improvement!!!!!!!
I am stunned by the difference. And hard pressed to understand how so simple a mod can result in such an improvement in all areas of the sound.
I have a Soundsmith Strain Gauge Cartridge system that uses 2 wall warts to power the integrated Pre amp. As soon as I get the cartridge back from re tipping I will try these babies on that side of the system. I can’t wait to hear the results..and will report back when I have.
