Power supply poll for Chord Qutest

I had success employing a 5v Ifi iPower Elite with a Chord Qutest, which is Ifi's top of the line switch mode power supply.

Zerozone on alipay, Kingrex,or with more dosh Keces or Teddy Pardo.

A ordered a LHY for my RME from TEK Electronics in the US on

Jan.12. Order sent to LHY in China for properly configured

unit. I received the piece today, less than one week. No time to listen

but turnaround service was quite impressive as is build quality.

I just plug mine in to a furman power conditioner. Maybe I’m missing something? Sounds great to me. 

Sbooster BOTW P&P ECO MKII for me, I find I use the incisive neutral filter more than before. Prior to the Booster I almost always listened to it warm and rolled off.

Thanks for your input folks.

@mickeyb, you might be missing something.  Converting any switching power supply in your system to linear supply has the general benefit of getting noise out of your mains that even your Furman can’t completely clean up.  And the benefits of a good power supply to digital gear is usually significant and immediate.  That’s why you rarely see switching supplies in very high end audio gear.  Look into it.

I prefer a Channel Islands LPS to an Sbooster on the Qutest. A Small Green Computer LPS sounds just fine too.

iFi Power Elite was a big improvement over stock power supply.
