Power Supply Upgrade for Bluesound Nano


Just purchased a Bluesound Nano to use as a dedicated streamer/dac.  Performance is outstanding, but am considering a outboard power supply upgrade.

My system is currently comprised as follows:

Belles Aria Two Integrated Amplifier

Bluesound Nano

Vandersteen VLR-CT speakers

Audioquest Cabling and Power Conditioning

Skylan Speaker Stands

Considering Sbooster or Ifi power supplies.  Any recommends would be greatly appreciated.

Power supplies are one of the most expensive component in an audio product.  Upgrading an inexpensive power supply often results in improved performance.  

^^^^ this.

Upgrading from a cheap wall wart is a no brainer on an evolved system. How much of a difference you'll notice is a variable, but it should be a step in the right direction.  

I don't have a specific recommendation on a brand, but have replaced the wall warts on my phono stage and DAC with DIY regulated linear power supplies, and offered lower noise floor and more refined overall performance in both cases.
