MOON 320S Power Supply

 

 

Introduction 

 

Your MOON 320S Power Supply incorporates many significant design features to enhance the “world class”performance of 
your MOON 310LP Phono Preamplifier. This is an abbreviated list of the more important features:    

 

High quality toroidal transformer

 

4 stages of DC voltage regulation. 

 

Total capacitance of 35,200uF. 

 

Dual choke inductance (2x 200mH). 

 

Special "pi-type" filter after initial voltage rectification stage to reduce AC transmission noise. 

 

Dual action voltage regulation system to further lower noise. 

 

DC signal noise is 150dB lower within 310LP circuitry. 

 

Reduces the 310LP’s signal-to-noise ratio by over 3dB, regardless of its selected internal gain setting. 

 

Pure copper circuit board tracings with extremely low impedance characteristics. 

 

Accurate matching of the finest high quality electronic components. 

 

Designed to be powered up at all times for optimal performance. 

 

Low operating temperature for a longer than normal life expectancy. 

 
 

 

Installation & Placement 

 

The MOON 320S has been designed to be placed side-by-side with the MOON 310LP. Together, these 2 components will fit 
easily on any standard audio equipment shelving system. As well, feel free to experiment with other placement options for the 
best possible setup that meets your needs.
