The Muffsy Hifi Dual Power Supply Kit is available at $45 + shipping.
The Muffsy Hifi Dual Power Supply uses a 15-18 VAC wall adapter, so you don't have to handle mains power.
Please note that the AC wall adapter is not included in the kit. See this page for options.
This +/-15V regulated dual power supply has only 0.1 mV ripple. The PSU provides up to 200 mA of power, with heat sinks mounted. It will power four of the Muffsy PP-4 without the heat sinks.
It is designed for hifi equipment, such as the Muffsy Phono Preamp or other high quality preamps.
There is also a second regulated DC power supply on-board, capable of delivering 0.5A of 15V DC. It even has space for a current limiting LED resistor.
The Muffsy Back Panel is a perfect fit for a B0905 cabinet, and is delivered with the all necessary components at $29 + shipping.

Muffsy Relay Input Selector
The Muffsy Relay Input Selector is a simple, reliable, high quality, DIY stereo input selector that's controlled by an ESP-32 and is slightly larger than a Post-IT note.
This kit is meant to be paired with a preamplifier circuit, such as the Muffsy BSTRD Class-A Tube Preamp, Pass Labs B1 and many others.
- PCB Size: 75.6 x 81.3 mm / 2.82 x 3.20 in
Features:
- Four stereo inputs and one mute circuit, switched with Panasonic TQ-2 relays
- One stereo output
Power/GND for ESP32 and relays separate from signal power/GND - Programmable 5V output for Solid State Relay, can turn on and off mains power
- Break-out for all ESP-32 pins
- "Safe" ESP-32 GPIOs control the relays, leaving the most usable pins available
- IO pins go high when activating a relay, can be used for indicator LEDs
- Fully open source, no strings attached
Muffsy BSTRD - Class A Tube Preamp
This great Class A Tube Preamp is sold as two PCBS, the preamp itself and a power supply. Visit the hackaday.io project page for a wealth of information.
Specifications:
- Input voltages: ~80V DC/0.1A, 6V DC/1.5A (Power supply info)
- Valves: 6J5 or equivalent
- Gain: 2.2X / 6.85 dB
- Frequency range +0/-3 dB: 10 Hz to 30 kHz
- THD at 1V out: 0.35%
- SNR at 1V out: 93.2 dB (A-weighted), 83.5 dB (non A-weighted)
- Circuit clips at: 17V rms output
Due to the fact that this preamp is sold as PCBs only, there is no support offered on this product. Everything needed to build the preamp is available on the hackaday.io project page, including shopping cart for the components.
