Mac Mini Power Supply

I recently built a linear power supply for my Mac Mini. The difference in sound quality was one of the single largest performance upgrades I've made to my system in years.

I was wondering if anyone else has had any experience with their mac mini PSU upgrades and what your experiences are. It's one of those upgrades I wish I had made months ago.

I've always been a big believer in the source being the most important component in the system. Followed by the power supply being one of the most important parts within the component. At least in this case, it appears that was correct.

Yes, the power supplies are available... but VERY different from what they were when I wrote this article a year ago. Take a gander at the website and shoot me an email and I'll help you any way I can :)

Hey Mintzar,

FYI, your link above - http://www.circumpointaudio.com/ - does not work.

Since the new, wonderful audiogon no longer allows members to email each other (in their defense, I can see member emailing quickly leading to anarchy), please contact me through one of my ads and let me know if you're still selling these linear PS's, and if you also handle removing the switcher from the Mini. Thanks.

Paul - to be clear - "Mintzar" is, in fact, the proprietor of Core Audio Technology. Check out his website and contact him, and thank me later...
