hi there, a new PSU for my DAC is reaching me in a couple of days; i'm planning to replace the stock DC cable by a new, DIY one; for cable i'll use some shielded IC, and for plug i'll use the Oyaide 2.1 one; the problem is the other side of the stock cable, which uses a rather unusual socket (male) and plug (female); it seems to me they are Aviation Plug GX12-2P;my questions: 1. is there any audiophile version of that connector? 2. how to connect the shield? it seems there is no ground available on those connectors, but the PSU has indeed a ground, since the AC input is the usual one TIA! best, paco |

I would also look to upgrade the AC power cable on it. |

yep indeed! a beautiful Acrolink 7N with Oyaide 079 connectors is waiting for the PSU to arrive! |
