Linear Power Supply for a DAC

@mclinnguy 

I saw the C7 from Audio Sensibility, but went with a Canare DC cable only for the lower cost. I use AS Statement PCs in my system and they are outstanding as far as improved sound, not to mention the build quality. I prefer their performance over my Furutec PCs.

@lowrider57 thanks for your fast reply.  Yes, I have considered the cost/benefit of using $350 lps on a $500 streamer.  I do like the Blu-OS user experience and the quality of sound.  Going up the Blu-OS ecosystem to NAD streaming gets expensive quickly, so maybe adding an lps to improve performance of the Node is not really such a bad deal.  I also have an ipurifier, and could upgrade that power supply as well.  Could end up with lots of boxes and fat cables on my rack, but I am dedicated to having zero switching supplies in my system.  So much for all that effort on the part of manufacturers to be energy efficient...

wrong calculus…. clean power that does NOT dump SMPS hash back in to the line is not worth worrying over the LPS to component $ ratio…

Same here. I've been thinking about using a LPS to power my router. It's on a separate circuit than my audio but there are members here who say they can hear an improvement.
