The noise issue with switching supplies is primarily common-mode. Fitting a common-mode filter on the DC feed to a DAC would be sub-optimal, its best position is on the mains side. Anyone got example DACs with CM filters on their power inputs?
Linear Power supplies for DACs...?
Is there real SQ benefits or is it placebo snake oil?
i have a Chord Qutest and it has a wall wart. Lots of people say there’s real benefit to adding an external LPS.
Plenty of choices ranging from $50 - $500.
Sure, a home audition is ideal.
but, what do you guys think?
Not just for the Qutest, but in general for DACs.
