Putting the transformer in its own chassis keeps its magnetic field away from circuitry handling very small signals. One PS-3 powers one unit, so a system with more than one Bryston component needing external power needs a supply for each.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDistance is the best filter.\u003c\/b\u003e A mains transformer radiates a field that a phono stage will happily amplify.

What it buys beyond simply working is a genuinely low noise floor, which is the whole reason Bryston splits the two boxes in the first place. If you run two units needing external power, budget for two supplies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePro Tip:\u003c\/b\u003e Put the PS-3 on the opposite side of the rack from the phono stage and let the umbilical do the work. It sounds obvious, but people often stack the supply directly under the component it powers, which undoes most of the benefit of separating them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFunction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExternal regulated linear DC power supply\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePowers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOne Bryston BP-2 phono gain stage or BP-26 preamplifier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eConnectivity\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDC output\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x locking 6-pin XLR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUmbilical pins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eV positive, V negative, 12V, mute, ground, chassis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMains inlet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIEC-320 C14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePower\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMains input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120V\/60Hz, 220V\/50Hz or 240V\/50Hz (region specific)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConsumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhysical\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e145 x 70 x 210 mm (W x H x D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack, Silver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarranty\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bryston","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":48258533884162,"sku":"BRY-PS-3-BL","price":1999.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":48258534015234,"sku":"BRY-PS-3-SI","price":1999.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/4376\/1716\/files\/bryston-power-supplies-bry-ps-3-bl-1253159270.jpg?v=1785991751","url":"https:\/\/www.customht.com.au\/products\/bryston-ps-3-external-dc-regulated-power-supply","provider":"CHT Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
