@mijostyn I inferred the review as saying over-engineered and too expensive. I re-read the article and agree that the review is more favorable than I alluded to above. Perhaps my coffee wasn't strong enough! Also, Mikey did not say either of those...

Go Buy Some Music You Deadbeat Streamers!
I enjoy YouTube. Had a Tidal subscription but the SQ was not cutting it for me at all. Access to a large catalog was fun but much missing. I tend to buy the LP of artists I listen to a lot online. Ultimately, old analog recordings are my favorite ...

@tomic601 loads more detail on the MoFi but it seems oddly compressedI heard an Acoustic Sounds demo of before and after records and it was the same deal. Sounded great 'n' all but I preferred the originals.  
How important is a Linear Power Supply Versus a Switcyed one?
I've not heard it but linear supplies generally don't have some of the noise associated with SMPS. If Sutherland deem it an improvement, it most likely will sound a fair bit better.
