foliver Report post #1 Posted December 18, 2016 Hello, i want to reduce size and weight of my denecke 48v for wireless boom, someone knows a real compact one to use with a tx? Plug ons are not an option, thanks!Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philip Perkins Report post #2 Posted December 18, 2016 An old ASC "black box" P48 psu is a little smaller, but hard to find. I still have one but it uses 22v batteries that are hard to find anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philip Perkins Report post #4 Posted December 18, 2016 Yeah, 22v mercury batteries, with one contact on each end, made for OLD radio gear I guess. I bought the PSU new in the early '80s. Works great if you can find these batts, but still not really a whole lot smaller than the Denecke. Maybe you could make something from a kit or plans that had "flying" leads? It's the XLR connectors than make the Denecke so big. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mungo Report post #9 Posted December 19, 2016 Have the Ambient. Very light and reliable, works with normal AAs and draws little power. Only negative: It's nearly impossible to mount it somewhere without accessories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only negative: It's nearly impossible to mount it somewhere without accessories. I have the Ambient one too - I found a tiny neoprene belt pouch for generic digital cameras that fits it perfectly for a few dollars that I cable-tied to one side of a Rycote shock mount handle, with a Lectro SM pouch on the other side for a wireless boom. Feels about the same as a plug-on in a similar position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Christian Spaeth Report post #15 Posted December 21, 2016 I use the Kortwich power supply, very small and light, runs for a day on a 9V, and sells at a decent price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ao Report post #16 Posted December 21, 2016 you did not mention which wireless system you were planning to use the power supply with. I used an areitec pico48 with my zax wireless, before the 742 plug-on was available. lightweight, one 9volt battery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Christian Are you using the VCP-M1 ? There is no mention of a 9V powering possibility on the Kortwich site. All the Kortwich preamps seem to be powered only through a Hirose.
