RE: MAny power supplies for audio use various multi pin connections

Posted by paco on March 18, 2017 at 14:04:26:
interesting; yet i still don't understand why those brands use so
complex 5 pins DIN connectors for AC? for AC you need just 2 pins!
i wonder how they wire/solder so many pins?

also, did you try to replace the stock cord from power supply to preamp
by a better, more "audiophile" one? with those connectors that might be rather difficult!
