Mat-with-one-t Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Hi all. I run a Lehmann Black Cube SE phono stage with my VPI Classic TT. I have a spare power supply and I have some questions that Googalising hasn’t managed to answer. - my Black Cube SE phono stage came with a “PWX” power supply. It sounds really good, and is a great step up from a stock power supply - I have an unused “PWX 11” power supply. I had planned to use it on another setup but probably won’t. Question is, apart from the fact that the “PWX 11” power supply has 2 outlets at the back (presumably to be able to run 2 phono stages (possibly only 2 Black Cubes??), is there a difference between the “PWX” and the “PWX 11”? I would just A-B them in a listening sesh, but the PWX 11 is brand new in the box, so if there’s no real difference, apart from the 2 outputs, then I’ll likely move it on. Cheers.

kelossus Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I believe the PWX II was just a 2 output version for use with a phono stage and headphone amplifier or other Lehmann products. I don't believe it to be an upgrade from the original PWX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat-with-one-t Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 That’s all I thought too. So which headphone amp would benefit from it? Are there any other components that may benefit from it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelossus Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 They have quite a range of headphone amps. The Linear being the most common. Lehmann also make small power amps. Unsure if the PWX can be used with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat-with-one-t Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 No worries. I reckon I’ll move it on. I’m after a tube headphone amp so no go there.... Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
