Description
Farad Super3 Power Supply
Rediscover music – Rediscover your system
3 Amps of musicality
Ranging from 5 to 24 V, this small package carries a big punch over the full bandwidth with an incredible low noise floor.
Here’s where it comes from…
A well designed circuitry, smart PCB design, grade A components, a sturdy aluminium housing and the drive to bring out something special in any sound system make up for a nifty and potent supercapacitor linear power supply with a very small footprint that will find a place in even the smallest of environments.
There is more to it!
It’s not a case of throwing in some premium components and expect instant success. They need to work in harmony to get an optimal result. It all starts with a clear concept of goals, how to achieve them, and painstaking testing: by measurements and by many hours of listening.
Anatomy of your Super3 Power Supply
What makes the Super3 stand out from the others
– Super Capacitor Power Bank
– Custom wound transformer
– Hf Pi-filter smoothing section
– AC inlet, Fuse & Fuse holder: Furutech Rhodium AC inlet as standard.
Voltage change service
Depending on the initial output voltage from your power supply, we can change the output voltage in our workshop. Since each supply is fully optimized to its specific voltage, both the supercap module and mains transformer need to be replaced for this change.
Upgrades
Get the most out of your Super3 with a fuse upgrade. The Quantum Science Audio Blue and Synergistic Research Purple fuses add more ‘live’ and PRAT to the overall performance. The Quantum Science Audio Violet adds even more refinement and dynamics.

DC Power Cables
DC Power cables make for a huge difference. Whilst our standard supplied DC output cable already brings huge improvements in sound, a Level 1 or Level 2 DC output cable will truly be the icing on the cake. If you don’t find your desired connector, please contact us for the possibilities for a custom one.

TC –
After three good years feeding my DAC with a Sonore microRendu (powered by an UpTone LPS-1), which had taken my system’s sound quality into a new league, and which was further improved by the addition an UpTone Iso Regen, I have now added a combined set of upgrades that is the most dramatic improvement I’ve ever experienced:
Adding 1) an UpTone EtherRegen ethernet switch feeding, via optical fiber, 2) a Sonore opticalRendu powered by a Farad Super3, replacing the microRendu (I’ve kept the Iso Regen in the chain).
Joel here at Metawave was fantastic to work with — prompt, very communicative, and helpful before, during, and after the sale, volunteering a variety of useful information and working generously to get me the package of opticalRendu, Super3, and fiber and power cables and other options that would deliver the best results at a reasonable price, and in a short time frame.
Now, after a few weeks of burn-in, the combination of the EtherRegen and the opticalRendu powered by the Super3, plus Iso Regen, has achieved, in my system at least, a stunning synergy: whole new levels of intimacy and presence, percussive detail and impact combined with supreme gentleness and removal of harshness, and almost awe-inspiring expansion of the width and depth of the soundstage into the kind of holographic immersion that I’d heard others talk about but hadn’t fully experienced before.
I have no relationship with Joel or Meta Wave other than as a satisfied customer — I just want to thank him for helping me to take these combined steps, which can seem daunting (I was hesitating myself), but which turned out to be more worthwhile than I’d imagined. It’s a cliche but I feel it’s true: now it’s like hearing all my music again for the first time.
