Looking for Linear Power Supply for my Mytek Brooklyn DAC. Suggestions?

I’m trying to remove all wall warts from the same electrical circuit from my music room.

Yes do remove all smp wall warts, ok if the are linear ones’
Unplug your laptop charger, desk top computer, tv etc etc, and anything that has a smp.

And this is my big I’ll let you in on, the big one nobody I know knows about, if you have a solar roof array the inverter box injects massive amount of square wave noise back into the household wiring there are 2 switches to turn that one off. the AC and the DC one

I know it’s a bit of a ritual to do just to have a serious listen, but you wait till you hear your system when you’ve done all that, and it then sounds good any time of day, instead of just sometimes sounding good, just hope none of your system runs smp’s.

I use a Teddy Pardo on my Chord Qutest.
Really worthwhile upgrade.

Chose a TP as it looks good in my rack...seriously.
Those sBooster things were U.G.L.Y.

Two suggestions I find very interesting and helpful from George. For one, it’s really better to clean your power by isolating from SMPS devices first than just adding any power conditioning or exotic LPS’s and power cords. Secondly, the battery option does make sense. I am going to try one with a bigger capacity (mAh) though so it lasts longer. While a bit pricier, still beats the boutique LPS brands out there by far, not including the power cords I will be tempted to buy those with.

I do have solar but the inverter is 300+ feet away. Good right? It’s our back and not on roof.

Better maybe you have to try, could be just lower in intensity if it were closer to the hifi circuit.
Because if you think, no matter how many different circuits you have in a house, they all eventually come back to the one active wire and one neutral wire that come in from the street.

I also use a proper isolation transformer (with gap between primary and secondary) on all my source equipment, because noise can’t jump a gap so they say.

Tried a real big isolation transformer on the power amp, it still sounded better into the wall socket because no matter what conditioning I tried on it, it always introduced a series resistance which robbed the dynamic life out of the amp, because big power amps power supplies don’t have regulated circuits in them, they need to have low esr (equivalent series resistance) power supplies. David Manley (VTL) was the one that opened every ones eyes to this way back in his book The VTL Cookbook", he called them a "stiff" power supplies, and was dead against rectifier tubes for that series resistance reason
