Reasonably-Priced Linear Power Supply for WIMM Pro Plus Streamer


I just received my WIIM Pro Plus streamer for my second system, which is most often played at a low or moderate volume level..  Set up was prompt and simple, using my iPad zero for set-up and operation.  It feeds music to my Rega Brio integrated amplifier and Paradigm Premiere 200b bookshelf speakers.  The sound is excellent,  it I wonder if going from ehat appears to be a phone charger wall wart (USB-C) to a linear power supply would make an improvement in the sound quality and what options there might be, not to exceed the roughly $200 price of the Pro Plus.  BTW, although both the Pro Plus and  the Brio have internal DACs, I am using a Schiit Modi 3+ DAC in the system.  I will do a comparison of the three DACs to see if there is a significant difference in sound quality.  If not, I can simplify things by using one of the internal DACs.

i can attest to that...

 

Tales of power supply-related sonic improvements above and beyond noise suppression are... another matter, let's say. In any event, it should be obvious to everyone that spending $500 on a teddy prado or sbooster supply for a $200 wiim makes no sense. But spending $50 does, and will result in a noticeable improvement.

And sonics best under $1200 $750!a bargain

I tried one linear power supply from Linear  tube audio...

Nothing cheap could compare... Dead silent noise floor level i even remember it after 2 years now...

My system value being 1000 bucks it made no sense to buy one though...

i have tried one with their microzotl tube amplifier  which could not beat my Sansui alpha for a very demanding headphone on many front (  K340)... Then i returned it...

It is the best linear power supply i ever tried, linear Tube audio service is flawless ... I am no expert in power supply  for sure ...  But a noise floor level  almost zero noise you dont forget it...You hear it...
