The Buffalo 32s manual recommends +/-15VDC power for Analog and +5VDC for Digital.
My questions are ... What is the maximum +/- Voltage that can be applied to Analog? What is the maximum + Voltage that can be applied to Digital?
And, more particularly ... Could +/-19VDC be applied to Analog without sonic penalty? Could +7VDC be applied to Digital without sonic penalty.
Thank you. -Harry

+/-15V on the analog side is the maximum safe voltage. I would not go any higher.
On the digital side 7V would be at the very top of the range. I would go no higher. And I would watch the temp of the 1.2V reg. It will get pretty hot at that input voltage. There is no good reason to go over 5V here.

Thanks, Russ.
In order to maintain a Balanced (sorry) view on this topic, I must now ask ... What is the Minimum +/- Voltage that can be applied to Analog. What is the Minimum + Voltage that can be applied to Digital.
Thank you. -Harry

The relays will not function correctly with < +/-12V So don't go any lower than that on the analog side.
I would not test the LDOs too much. But down to 4.5V on VD should be ok. Possibly even lower. I just don't have any good reason to try it.
Cheers! Russ
