This is a buyer’s market for used linear power supplies, and the A$420 asking price for this “new” PD Creative LPS30 SE is fair but not a bargain compared to the typical used market. Based on four recent AUD listings, the median used price is A$353, with the 25th percentile at A$172 and the 75th at A$565; since A$420 sits just above the median but well below the 75th percentile, it’s a reasonable offer for a claimed-new unit, though not the strong deal you’d get if it were under A$172.
The LPS30 SE is well-regarded for delivering cleaner, more stable voltage to audio gear, reducing noise and improving dynamic clarity in DACs, streamers, and preamps. Its compact form and effective shielding make it a practical upgrade for noise-sensitive setups. At A$420 for a new-condition item, you’re paying a modest premium over used averages but gaining original-owner condition and likely full accessories—an excellent opportunity if you’ve been hunting for this specific model in top shape.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Node Audio is a British hi-fi brand founded in Cambridge, England, by industrial designers Ashley May and David Evans, who also run the design consultancy Studio17. The company was formed in the late 2010s; its current corporate entity, Node Audio Research Ltd, was incorporated in 2018. That design-led background is central to the brand’s identity, and it has helped give Node a distinct engineering-and-aesthetics profile within UK audio.
Node Audio is best known for loudspeakers and audio support products rather than electronics. Its lineup has included the Hylixa and Atom speaker ranges, alongside accessories such as isolation platforms and speaker support products like the SS-1. The loudspeakers are the company’s headline products, and they reflect a strong emphasis on advanced cabinet architecture, vibration control, and unconventional acoustics.
In the market, Node Audio sits firmly in the boutique high-end camp. It is not a mass-market brand, and it does not compete across broad categories like amplifiers, DACs or headphones. Instead, it appeals to buyers looking for technically ambitious, visually distinctive British loudspeakers with a serious engineering story. Its reputation is still relatively niche, but it has drawn attention for original design and premium positioning.
