Hi,
I don't currently have a 12 to 18v supply capable of driving the Amp. I do, however, have a 20v 3A supply. How critical is the 18V specified upper voltage? Will the extra 2V fry something or simply shorten some components lifespan?
My ultimate goal was to power the Amp from the output of a Pro-ject supply unit that outputs 20V!

HiFiBerry team Dear Lee,
we can't confirm that 20V is ok. It has been tested up to 18V. Power dissipation might be too high at 20V, also this is the limit for some components on the board. Even if the Amp does not fail at the beginning, the lifespan might be reduced.
Best regards

Lee Roberts Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the reply. I figured that that is what you would say! Best I look harder for a suitable supply at 18V!

Lee
