Simplifi Audio - DSpeaker 2.0 ultra power supply

Simplifi audio has been the absolute worst audio dealer I've ever dealt with. I bought the $500 power supply for the Dspeaker 2.0 seven months ago - still haven't received it - and he's refused to respond to any calls or emails. Working with paypal to try to get a refund - but he doesn't respond to them either - so taking forever.

I should have known better - had a lousy experience buying the DSpeaker from him as well - took 3 months, but at least I finally got it.

Everyone says what a nice guy Tim is in person - and I'm sure he is - but this is a terrible way to run a business. Stay away from buying from him. Know lots of friends that gave had the same experience.

Anyone else having same issues with them?

Just got mine today...

Did anyone find they needed to re-run room correction once the PS was changed?  I find the Astron makes the unit more dynamic and robust but that the bass seems a little thicker now.

Wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this.  I can easily re-run calibration if need be.

Follow-up to steakster's post...

He is ABSOLUTELY right about setting the voltage to 12V.  The DSPeaker sounds much worse being fed 13.8V.  On my system (PS Audio BHK, DSD, Memory Player, Sonus Liutos) the soundstage collapses at 13.8V.  I couldn't figure out why it sounded cleaner with the Astron but was fuller and wider with the wall wart.  The wall wart provided by DSPeaker output 12.1V so that's what I set the Astron to.

Again, BIG difference and thanks to steakster.
