Topic: UCX ii Power Suply

Does the UCX II contain a voltage stabilizer?

Can I connect the UCX II with a 12v transformer (not impulsed) power supply, and what amperage do you recommend?

Re: UCX ii Power Suply

Is that 12 V DC? Then yes. 12V AC? Then no. And why you not use the included power supply?

Re: UCX ii Power Suply

Thanks for the answer!
The supplied power supply has been forgotten in another country
And so I can use a transformer non-impulsive 12V DC power supply?

Is 1 or 2A better? Or does it not matter, because UCX II has an internal power stabilizer?

Re: UCX ii Power Suply

You didn't answer my question, and 'non-impulsive' is an unknown expression to me. Is that from an online-translator?

Re: UCX ii Power Suply

Good afternoon
There were difficulties in translation.
As far as I know, there are two types of power supplies - switching (in my language, impulsed) and transformer. The transformer has a less stable behavior.

But in general, I will ask in a different way
1. Is the inscription on the back of the UCX II true that power is possible at a voltage of 9-18 V?
2. On the website, the current that the device needs at 12V = 910 mA. I take it that's right?

Re: UCX ii Power Suply

1. Yes, and as said on the back and the manual it requires DC. 12 V is recommended. Manual: https://www.rme-audio.de/downloads/fface_ucx2_e.pdf
2. Yes, but it needs more for a bit headroom. That's why we ship with a 2 A power supply.
