Linear Power Supply for a DAC

@lowrider57 are you still using the Swagman SE lps, and if so, on what piece of gear?  I just got a Qutest DAC and had Swagman provide a quote.  I have two of his pieces, one of them the SE, and I like them a lot.  I also had an upgraded MCRU lps supplying a Qute HD DAC and it was great.  MCRU are now expensive, and they no longer build them out like the one I had. Trying to maximize cost benefit ratio for Qutest.  

I am also considering adding an lps to supply my Node(3).  Have heard good things about Teddy Pardo’s kit to convert Node from internal switching to external lps.  Do you have any experience with attempting this?

@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...
