The smart power 24V is a battery-based DC power supply upgrade, designed to unleash more of the considerable potential of Clearaudio’s high-performance Ovation, Innovation and Statement turntables. It partners intelligent circuit technology with long-lasting NiMH (nickel-metal hydride) rechargeable batteries to deliver 24V of pure, clean, fluctuation-free power. The smart power 24V can be set to switch automatically from battery play mode into recharging mode if desired. Even when recharging, it continues to offer an improvement in sound quality as well as adding safety features such as protection against short circuits and overvoltage. Its elegant, low-key design includes a dimmable LCD display.
