REVIEW – Timestep HE V Linear Power Supply
The Technics 1200 and 1210 turntables are gaining a good deal of favour with audiophiles who are adding better arms, power supplies and more. Here, in his first review for Hifi Pig Alan McIntosh adds the £495 HE V Linear Power Supply from UK company Timestep to his own Technics 1210.
“While the pedigree of the Technics SL1200 is clear among many generations of DJ’s across the globe due to its sheer quality of engineering, robustness and ability to deliver time and time again without fail (in often less than perfect conditions) for many audiophiles it does have some niggling sonic gremlins to address – among them the power supply. Traditionally the internal power regulator has resulted in a less than smooth supply which is a weakness many can’t accept – me among them. This is where Timestep … well.. step in!..”
