External Linear Power Supplies


Does anyone have any experience in comparing the following external linear power supplies:
SBooster (most expensive)
Small Green Computet
iFi Power Supplies (least expensive) ?

I am interested in effectiveness, and bang for the buck.

I would use one of these to Power a Chord Qutest, a SugarCube SC-2 and a Massdrop THX AAA Headphone amp.

Thanks.

Some good reviews for the Pulse Mini.

Check some forums to see if a particular voltage input is beneficial i.e. does the Pulse Mini have a voltage sweet spot?

A decent DC cable as well. I have some from Ghent Audio which are good and reasonably priced.

 

If you can afford it, I would buy an LPS that has good reviews.

I love my Plixir Elite and TeddyPardo (and Coherent Systems UK) power supplies.

Like my Teradak DC30 and FiiO LPS.

Okay with the two generic dual supplies from AliExpress.

Read somewhere a guy who liked his PD Creative on a BlueSound.

 

As you know, a good power supply will lift performance, and should be an investment with no regrets.

The one review I had found that used a separate power supply for a Pro-Ject Stream Box S2 Ultra streamer observed no improvement. I reread that review a long time later, and they used the Project Battery power supply.

So you are saying a battery power supply is inferior to electrical linear or switching P-S? Any reason why? I am just trying to learn.

Not at all. I have not compared the two, so cannot comment.

Found a linear power supply better on a previous Dac than a batter power supply.
