JDS Labs - 16V Power Supply

JDS Labs 16VAC power supply for Atom and Element

This 16VAC transformer is the original JDS Labs power supply for Element and Atom series amplifiers and DACs, including the Atom Amp 2. Order additional ones for convenience or for use in different regions.

The exact model number and compliance certifications are shown on the power supply label and vary by plug and region.

An AC output

This adapter delivers an alternating voltage (VAC), not a DC one. Atom and Element units are designed for this type of supply and handle rectification and regulation themselves. A generic DC adapter, even of a similar voltage, is therefore not a substitute.

For the Element IV, JDS Labs specifies a dedicated 17VAC supply: see the 17V power supply for Element IV.
