LHY Audio LPS-80 Linear Power Supply (High Current Audiophile PSU)

Product Description

High-Current Linear Power for Demanding Audio Systems

The LHY Audio LPS-80 is a high-performance linear power supply designed for audio systems that require greater current delivery, improved transient response, and stable low-noise operation under load.

Built using advanced parallel regulation with LT3041 and LT3086 regulators, the LPS-80 delivers clean, stable power with low output impedance—making it ideal for network switches, streamers, servers, and high-current digital devices.

Compared to smaller linear supplies, the LPS-80 is engineered to maintain performance during dynamic load changes, ensuring consistent voltage stability and improved overall system performance.

Key Benefits

• Stable, low-noise power under high current load
• Improved dynamics and transient response
• Cleaner, more controlled sound reproduction
• Reduced harshness from switching power supplies

Advanced Power Architecture

• Parallel LT3041 / LT3086 Regulation – Ultra-low noise design with improved current handling
• Low Output Impedance – Ensures stable voltage under dynamic load conditions
• Ultra-Low Ripple Noise – < 40μV (no load), < 500μV (full load)
• High Bandwidth Output Stage – Fast response to transient current demands

High Current & Transient Performance

• Peak Current Capability – 1.2–1.5× rated output (e.g. 5V: 7A rated / 8A peak)
• High-Capacity Filtering – 4 × 4700μF Philips BC058 capacitors for stable energy delivery
• Schottky Rectification – Low-dropout design for improved efficiency and reduced noise

Internal Design & Components

• 4-Layer Gold-Plated PCB – Improves conductivity and reduces signal loss
• X7R MLCC Capacitors – Suppress high-frequency noise
• Precision Low-Drift Resistors – Maintain long-term stability

Why It Matters in Audio Systems

Many digital audio devices draw current unevenly depending on processing load, network activity, and playback demands. Power supplies that cannot respond quickly introduce noise, instability, and timing errors.

The LPS-80 is designed to maintain clean, stable power even under these changing conditions—resulting in improved clarity, tighter bass, and a more controlled and natural presentation.

Ideal Applications

• Network switches and routers
• High-performance streamers
• NUCs and music servers
• DACs requiring higher current supply
• Systems with multiple connected digital components

LPS-50 vs LPS-50 Pro vs LPS-80

The LPS-80 is the ideal choice for systems where current delivery and stability matter as much as noise performance—providing the foundation for cleaner, more controlled, and more natural digital audio playback.
