Quality power question #2

Thanks, guys, for the suggestions.  I will be shopping around.

I have upgraded my wall warts, mostly for fear of noise, but having taken apart some Rega mini accessories I have to agree, that needs to be replaced. For the same reasons, I recommend Pro-Ject electronics over anything made by Rega. Better value and better attention to power supply noise abatement:

Still what most would call "entry-level" though, if you are serious about vinyl you'll probably want something even better.

If you do have other devices worth an upgrade, I recommend the iFi wall wart replacements:

I use them mostly because I feel they prevent more noise from getting back-fed through the AC supply to other equipment. I use them on my streamer, DAC and Ethernet swtch.

Seriously though, if you are investing right now, a new phono stage is probably your better way to go.

+1 for what @audphile1 says.

Save your money for a much better phono stage - like those from Simaudio

• they do repsond nicely to an upgraded power supply if you think you need one, but out of the box they are just much better across the board

Upgrade the phono stage, not the wall-wart feeding it. 

As @coralkong points out, don't expect miracles.  A power supply upgrade will provide minor improvements on a excellent piece of gear.  I just googled the piece of gear in question and it cost 40% of the cost of the upgraded power supply.  Not a good plan.

The Rega fono mini is a $200 phono pre-amp, so I’m not sure how much more performance you can squeeze out of it.

You can always try an upgraded power supply, as @carlsbad2 pointed out, but I’m not sure I’d expect miracles.

Pretty quickly, you're going to run into a situation where you're throwing good after bad, so to speak.

I use the Farad Super 3.

Those wall warts are fine! Rega knows what they are doing! No need to spend hundreds on a linear supply, contrary to what the "golden ears" crowd claims.
