Linear power supply for Weiss DAC 204

Looking to upgrade from Chord Qutest with the Weiss Dac 204.  The Weiss comes with an ac adapter, brick or an external power supply that plugs into the wall. I am seeking to upgrade to a linear power supply. My top two choices are as follows:

  1. S Booster  Linear Power supply (About $450.00).
  2. Modwright Linear Power Supply (About $1000.00

Has anybody heard either of these? Dos the Modwright sound better than the S Booster? I currently have a LHY power supply on my Qutest and a S Booster on my Lumin U2 mini.  Each reduces the noise which in turn improved the sound.

Thank you.

I’m with @audphile1 

Teddy Pardo is the only company I have dealt with and I like the product and their service.

All the best.

Think about what a LPS does compared to most below average PSs. Although I have a 20 amp dedicated line and a CorePower 1800 PC. I got a huge leap when I added VeraFI Black Hole Vibration controls (I replaced the unstable cones with balls) and another huge leap when I added their Snubway into my Corepower. If you don’t already have HQ PLC consider their combination of Snubway, Mainstream Master class or ACE Power Package

I would wait for a month or two and get the new Uptone JS-4. I’m sure it’s better than Pardo/Modwright/certainly LHY, and can power two needing 2A or one 4A.
