STACK AUDIO VOLT LINEAR POWER SUPPLIES RELEASED

Following the introduction last year of the linear power supply for the LINK II streamer, Stack Audio is now launching an expanded range of audiophile linear power supplies called Stack Audio Volt.

STACK AUDIO VOLT

Stack Audio believes a pure, smooth power supply is essential for the best listening experience. Great attention to detail has been taken in every aspect of the design from the component selection and circuit design, through to eliminating physical vibrations. The Volt is a linear design built specifically for high quality audio systems that benefit from smooth, clean, DC supply. Stack Audio says that the Volt helps “eliminate background noise revealing subtle details and nuances revealed for more engaging music listening”.

STACK AUDIO VOLT KEY FEATURES

The Stack Audio Volt is optimised for the specific component it’s powering and features a UK made, precision wound toroidal transformer and Nichicon audio grade capacitors. It has two-way filtering with noise suppressors on both the input and output stages and a rigid and vibration-free precision machined aluminium case. The transformer is mounted on an isolation plate with Stack Audio’s Advanced Vibration Dissipation Compound (AVDC). High-quality star-quad geometry connecting cable provides further protection against EMI and mains borne interference. The Stack Audio Volt is available in black or silver anodised aluminium to match partnering equipment.
