Dear Clearaudio customer,
Congratulations!
Thank you for choosing the
smart power 12V
a revolutionary turntable DC power supply made in
Germany by Clearaudio.
The
smart power 12V
is a battery-based DC power supply upgrade designed for Clearaudio’s
concept series and Performance DC turntables.
Like the smart power 24V, it provides clean power that is independent of the variability and inherent
noise of the mains supply. With a minimal output impedance, it delivers a steady, stable voltage,
allowing your concept or Performance DC turntable to maintain perfect speed stability.
Again, like the 24V version, the
smart power 12V
can be set to switch automatically from battery
play mode into recharging mode and will continue to enhance your turntable’s performance and
protect it from short circuits and power surges, even while charging.
When used with the concept active turntable, the
smart power’s
(12V) benets are multiplied, since
both the turntable’s motor and the on-board phonostage are fed with pure, clean DC power.
We wish you much musical enjoyment with your new Clearaudio
smart power 12V
.

4. Operating information
• As long as a load is connected to the
smart power 12V
and the remaining charge level is sucient
for operation of the connected device there will be no charging.
• A reduction of the output voltage of up to 4V between two charging cycles is normal.
Crucial for the correct speed of the turntable is a noise free current and not the absolute value.
This is ensured by battery-buering and a special, linear regulation in the turntable.
• Switching o the unit is done using the power switch on the rear side of the
smart power 12V
.
• By turning the knob on the back, the light of the LED ring on the front can be dimmed in all
operating modes (see Pic.1, red mark).
Please note:
To prevent overheating of electronic parts never cover or put anything on top of the
smart power 12V
.
Do not dispose the unit in the domestic waste.
Do not expose the
smart power 12V
to a temperature above 40° Celsius.
