Ferrum Audio Hypsos Revolutionary Power Supply

Ferrum Audio Hypsos Revolutionary Power Supply

Please note: the Ferrum Hypsos is now provided with two power cables: both have a 4-pin DC connector at one end which connects to the Hyspos, and either a 2.1mm or 2.5mm jack to connect to your equipment. A 4-pin DC to 4-pin DC cable is also available to purchase separately.

HYPSOS is a hybrid power system and combines the best features of both linear and switching power supplies. HYPSOS can power many brands with a simple revolution of a knob. This software-based operation is unique to HYPSOS and an industry first! Apart from the ease of operation HYPSOS makes use of a smart combination of existing power sensing techniques, which again sets it apart from the pack. HYPSOS will reveal unrivalled detail and makes your existing setup perform to the max. You’ll just love it!

Any quality device with a DC power connector will benefit from HYPSOS. This could be a preamplifier, D/A converter, separate phono preamp, turntable or even a network switch. HYPSOS will power selected components and make them perform to the maximum of their capabilities.

HYPSOS defines a brand new category of hifi products. It’s not a simple power supply but an audio component of its own – an equally (or even more) important part of a setup as any other. HYPSOS offers a selection of unique features and even accounts for future software improvements – the device is software controlled with as few hardware-dependent elements as possible. The most important features are:

Features

• Hybrid Power System
• Distinct user levels
• Sweet Spot Tuning (SST)
• 4T Sensing Design (4TSD)
• Advanced Automation
• Extremely safe to use
• Detailed and revealing yet unfatiguing sound
• High-quality DC power cables
• Wide range of compatibility
• Supplied with two power cables: both have a 4-pin DC connector at one end which connects to the Hyspos, and either a 2.1mm or 2.5mm jack to connect to your equipment. A 4-pin DC to 4-pin DC cable is also available to purchase separately.

Hybrid Power System

Linear/switching hybrid design to get the advantages from both techniques - low ripple and noise as well as fast transient response and high efficiency.

Distinct user levels

Using pre-configured settings from the list of supported devices or setting custom parameters manually. Wide continuous output voltage range of 5-30V with up to 6A of current delivered to the load. HYPSOS is as universal a device as it gets.

Sweet Spot Tuning (SST)

Possibility to fine-tune the output voltage for the best sound. The voltage level can be safely adjusted on the fly to allow easy comparison testing.

4T Sensing Design (4TSD)

Ensuring the exact voltage level precisely at the point of the powered device DC input terminal - special cable design and feedback to ensure flat voltage at every moment. This technique eliminates the harmful effects of the cable's resistance effectively improving transient response.

Advanced Automation

Compatibility with Apple TV remote, Trigger in/out connector; possibility to automate power-up of the devices with standby mode even without dedicated trigger connection.

Extremely safe to use

Automatic Transformer Voltage Adjust (ATVA), Electronic Output Voltage Polarity Switch and overvoltage, current limit and short protection. Settings lock to prevent accidental change of the parameters.

Detailed and revealing yet unfatiguing sound

Makes your current audio setup perform to its potential. Tweak the sound modifying the voltage level on the fly and use the preferred combination of the 4-Terminal Sensing and Spread Spectrum Mode settings.

High-quality DC power cables

HYPSOS comes with one of the two high-quality DC power cables fitted with a 5,5x2,5mm and a 5,5x2,1mm DC plug, to connect to the most commonly used DC inlets. Other DC plugs can be made to order.

About Ferrum Audio

Ferrum Audio, a company firmly rooted in the Warsaw region of Poland, combines craftsmanship and audio to create exceptional audiophile-grade audio electronics. The name "Ferrum" derives from the Latin word for iron, reflecting the area's rich history of metallurgy and craftsmanship. Inspired by the region's heritage, nature, and local industry, Ferrum Audio is dedicated to showcasing its locally designed and manufactured products to the world.

The Ferrum team draws inspiration from the region's legacy of craftsmanship, including the renowned composer and pianist Frederic Chopin, born just kilometres from the company headquarters.
