Hello
after recently acquiring a Pro-ject RS preamp and being thoroughly disappointed with it I decided to try powering it with some 6v sla batteries that I had knocking about, all I did was wire 3 in parallel to get the 18v required by the pre wired them to a plug and stuck it into the preamp,well the difference was not subtle so now I would like to make a proper supply that can charge the batteries also I keep reading references to smoothing caps? so does anybody fancy writing me up a how to , I am useless with electronics and maths but I can read a schematic and use a soldering iron.
any help would be greatfully received.
