In Reply to: RE: Zero-Zone power supply on the way! posted by Mike B. on November 05, 2020 at 14:42:04
I recently saw a group test of various "low cost" supplies and the ZeroZone 6A LPS came first with by far the lowest noise and ripple.
So far everything I've found about that "brand" was very positive (they are cheap in absolute terms, but they are amongst the most expensive of the LPS sold on Aliexpress, and reading the descriptions on the sale pages there is always far less gibberish and "Chinese English" than most other products, which seems to indicate they know what they are doing ;)It was Duster, here on AA, who was one of the firsts to discover their price/quality ratio.
I'm sure I will be pleasantly surprised!

I never heard a Zerozone product I didn't like. Treat it seriously by the use of an audiophile-quality DC umbilical and AC power cord and you're good to go, KanedaK.
Fully agree with Duster. Zerozone PSUs also come with quite a decent Aucharm AC inlet so you don't have to mess with that.
While not a Zerozone product, I'm experimenting by ditching the 2-pin aviation connector (aka Cobra plug) for the detachable DC umbilical of a Studer900 PSU. The back panel cut-out hole is 16mm so it can accommodate a 3/8" strain relief bushing (cable gland) in order to hardwire a DC umbilical to the circuit board.
Actually a "semi-hardwired" DC umbilical, since the PCB features a set-screw type DC output terminal, so no removal of the circuit board is required to make permanent solder joints.
So it's easy to swap-out various DC umbilical builds by simply opening the top of the enclosure via the four screws near the top. Make sure to implement robust strain relief where the DC umbilical is clamped by the cable gland, and for the first few inches of the cable where it exits the enclosure. I'm working on yet another DIY DC umbilical build that seems promising, especially for a hardwired DC umbilical project, this time for a Zerozone 50VA PSU.
