My SOtM UltaNeo arrived today! 
It didn't come with a wall-wart PS, and my Keces P3 is still on-order, but it turns out the el cheapo wall wart for my KyroBak is 12V/3 amps, which matches the powering requirements for 12V UltraNeo just fine.
So....I just set it up a short while ago, and have started streaming music to it via Roon to start the burn-in process...
I put my home-made JSGSS (John Swenson Ground Shunt Strap) on the DC barrel plug to shunt high-impedance leakage currents from the wall-wart (which I presume to be a SMPS) to ground....be d*mned, HILCs!
Cold, out of the box, powered a cheap-*ss wall-wart PS I had lying about the house, it flat smokes the microRendu. :music:
I can only imagine what it will sound like when I move the Uptone LPS-1 UltraCap over to power the OpticalModule, when I get my incoming GhentAudio JSSG DC cables & the Keces LPS on it, and it burns in...:scratch2:
:thumbsup:
More later, stay tuned....
