"Yee Haw! Jester's Dead!". These were the words I was listening to pounding on Cambridge SoundWorks new Desktop TheaterTM 5.1 DTT2500 Digital speakers. What we have here is the first high end set of computer speakers that offers an external amplifier, coupled with a Dolby Digital Decoder in a computer speaker system.
| In July '99, I took a look at Cambridge SoundWorks FPS2000 speakers. The FPS2000's were, themselves, high quality speakers. What has Cambridge done now? They took the same satellites, added one more; and took the amplifier out of the subwoofer, and put it in an external amplifier, coupled with a Dolby Digital Decoder. This makes an already outstanding product, into an extremely outstanding product. I have been enjoying these speakers for a few weeks now, playing with the various settings and watching movies, and have fallen in love with these speakers. Cambridge SoundWorks have taken the PC speaker experience to a new level, and currently no one else has a unit like the 2500's. Below are the specifications for the DTT 2500's. Read on and we will get into their sound quality and how they work. |  |

what is the current rating of the adapter for dtt2500, the voltage required is 15v dc. unable to get this info., my old adapter is missing.myth11220 - Thursday, May 16, 2013 - link
Its a 15v 3A power supply with a positive center electrode - you should be able to find something similar on amazon or ebay or some universal laptop power supplies can start as low as 15v with enough amperage to make it work (although they are becoming a bit rare)tpfan - Sunday, April 21, 2019 - link
I have the same issue. My power thing fried when I plugged it in at my flat in Singapore. I don't want to buy a new system because I love this one, but with shipping and all that buying a new power adapter would cost more than buying a new sound system. is there a place locally to buy a replacement.
