DC Recovery

Sometimes the smallest addition makes the biggest impression.

DC Recovery grew out of a discovery we made while working on other projects: there was still more performance to unlock by addressing the DC power feeding the system. Even when we thought we’d squeezed out every last bit of resolution, cleaning up that power gave us a reason to listen again.

That’s why we’re so excited about DC Recovery. In our view, it’s one of the most rewarding improvements you can make for the money. Before spending more on another component or an expensive power supply, give the equipment you already own a cleaner foundation.

What really excites us is how widely useful this little upgrade can be. DC Recovery isn’t tied to one brand or one component: it works with a broad range of DC-powered gear within its voltage, current, connector, and polarity requirements. It’s the kind of simple, satisfying upgrade you can connect and enjoy right away, without replacing the equipment you already love.

Works with what you already have, and what comes next

DC Recovery works inline with your existing compatible DC supply, whether it’s a stock wall wart or an upgraded linear supply. It’s a simple addition designed to filter power-supply noise before it reaches your equipment, helping reveal more of the detail your system has to offer.

And when your system changes, DC Recovery doesn’t have to become obsolete. Unlike an upgrade dedicated to a single component, it can move to another compatible device as you change streamers, switches, or other gear. As long as the new equipment meets its connection and power requirements, you can keep putting it to work. That combination of immediate enjoyment and lasting usefulness is exactly why we’re so enthusiastic about it.

Example components

Use DC Recovery with compatible components such as:

• Wireless audio streamers
• Digital reclocking devices
• Powered signal conditioners
• NAS drives
• Network switches
• Routers

These are examples, not a guarantee of compatibility with every model. Each device must meet the voltage, current, connector, and polarity requirements below.

How to connect DC Recovery

Existing DC power supply → DC Recovery → compatible component

DC Recovery sits in the DC power connection between your supply and your component, not in the audio or network signal path.

Compatibility and connections

Use DC Recovery with DC supplies below 15V and devices requiring no more than 1A. Connections use 5.5mm × 2.1mm center-positive DC plugs. Confirm voltage, current, connector size, and polarity compatibility before connecting.

A 2.1mm-to-2.1mm DC cable is included. An option with an additional 2.1mm-to-2.5mm DC cable and Sonos Port cable is also available.

Turn down the noise and turn up the enjoyment

You don’t have to replace your system to take it further. Sometimes, you just need to turn down the noise.
