This is the JS-2 Linear Power Supply from UpTone Audio, recommended retail price (if buying direct) is $925 USD.
Hands down the JS-2 is my most expensive power supply. It makes the 95th percentile when it comes to expensive toys in terms of cost. Why do I spend so much money on power? Some says “bits are just bits"! For me, this is less of “a fool and his money are soon parted", but more a case of “shut up and take my money".
The JS-2 is that good!
Placed an order immediately after listening to a modified unit at a local audiophile’s place. There was a wait time as only a limited number of JS-2s are made every month. But once it was shipped, it got here quickly - sent via FedEx on Thursday (California, USA) and delivered the following Monday (Perth, Australia).
A more in-depth review will be posted later as I don’t have my primary DAC to audition this. My intention is to run this baby in for a week before I even listen to it.
This is just a quick unboxing for now, a beautiful unit indeed.

Hi Agent Kith, i have read the entire upgrading process of the JS-2. it really makes me upset reading that you consider the HD Plex a toy after the upgrade!
i was hoping to have a very good psu!!!!!!! used by several DAC’s producers as an upgrade .
the JS2 is really expensive, considering that shipping and custom fee to import are about $ 350. and 2 channels only.
not to mention the cost of the upgrades you have performed. But i am sure that you have now quite a perfect psu unit
