I'm using an Sbooster with a 205. I prefer the sound with the Sbooster. I also added the add-on purifying gizmo. Could be a case of audio nervosa and/or confirmation bias though. The 205 itself seems to have been a huge upgrade over the Chord Qutest (which is now in a different system). I was using a Denafrips Iris DDC, so didn't need the features of the 204. Listening to a Mozart clarinet concerto right now. Beautiful. Note: I paid $1350 new (advertised price $1695, I think) for the 205, from Vintage King, after I got a call asking if there was anything I was interested in. I see that the advertised price is much higher now. Yikes!!!

Yes, I got a nice improvement in sound quality with the linked power supply. BTW, most of these power supply types have an internal trim pot that let's you adjust the voltage anywhere within the specified range. Ultra-low noise Linear power supply DC 5V/9V/12V/15V/18V/19V |
