Because Niels lives nearby and uses the Aeris on a day to day basis, it only needed a short warm up period. Interlink used for the most part was a Cardas Clear XLR but the Cardas Hexlink Golden 5C XLR was also listened to briefly because that was the cable I used with my Aeris. A third cable was also tried: the Cardas Clear Beyond, which yielded more or less the best of the two aforementioned cables. What worked well in the past was either the latest version Harmonic Technology Pro ACII (to obtain a more relaxed, smooth and fluid sound) or a Furutech Apha3 (for a more sonorous timbre and to maximise dynamics and slam). To assess the differences, we first listened to the Aeris au naturel, with its own switched power supply, and I used a variety of powercords to make sure I obtained the maximum from it. Just like me, he was very excited to hear what the PSU treatment would do for the Aeris. ![]() Unfortunately I have sold my Aeris a while ago but my friend Niels still has his Aeris and was nice enough to come over with it for an evening of listening. Read the extensive Corus + PSU review here There is much more to say about the technical aspects and the effect on the Corus preamp, but this is already covered in the Corus + PSU review so please head over there for more info. The big advantage of this is that the PSU can supply lots of clean power instantly, and this is clearly audible in the absence of battery-typical effects that normally mar the otherwise clean sound, such as rounded off transients and a subjective slowing of pace. The PSU is a very special new kind of external power supply that employs a large bank of ultra capacitors. The PSU is not a normal linear or switched power supply, nor is it a Battery power supply. I am basing this on the incredible results obtained with the new PSU when feeding the Corus preamp that is normally fed by a switching power supply that is very similar to the one used for the Corus. While the Aeris’ external switching power supply is anything but an afterthought, the PSU is still likely to really transform the Aeris’ performance to new levels. ![]() Developed primarily to feed the Corus (and propell this preamp to absolute reference status in the process), the PSU can also power two additional components, for example the Aeris.Īs I learned time and again, the power supply is any component’s achilles heel. JRDG have just issued a very interesting new product: the Power Storage Unit, called PSU in short. Adding the brand new Power Storage Unit to the Aeris DAC ![]()
