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.

Lhy 15VA LPS 5V.  I own one and I could hear sonic improvement over ifi ipower 2 (for Schiit Dac).

I added a Sbooster to my "Tuba" Headphone Amp from Hagerman Audio Labs.

I thought it sounded incredible and when I spoke with the designer Jim Hagerman about any additional tweaks, he recommended the Sbooster power supply.

It was a definite enhancement, with more punch over the included wall wart.

I wouldn't replace the Bluesound Nano supply.  If you want to improve your power supply, you should use a PSaudio power supply for your whole system.  It will provide clean power to everything, which will dramatically improve your sound. 

I installed a IFI power supply on my Roku and it made the picture much cleaner, less noise, colors looked brighter and more vivid...

A worthwhile $80 I think it was, I already have the whole system plugged into a Equitech Son of Q balanced power conditioner, but the cheap stock power supply was noisy 

I’m not an electrical engineer so I’m not an expert.  Talking with people who are though I have learned that your focus should be on the power supply in your home.  If that is stable and the outlet(s) you are using are supplying the power needed to properly power your equipment you should be set.  Power supplies are one of the controversial issues in hi-fi.  Some people swear by upgrades and others call it snake oil.  Unless the manufacturer offers upgrades or tells you it’s okay I would not mess with it.
