    Power Supply for Dac
    Would this work as a good power supply for my Beresford Dac?

    I have read that a 12v linear power supply is much better than a wallwart.

    It wasn't until I replied that I actually saw your reference. :)

    I've certainly been happy with a Welborne Labs linear supply to replace the wal-wart with my Squeezebox Touch. The noise level has been reduced, the sound is more dynamic and low level resolution has improved.

    That model is a step in the right direction, but could use some beefing up along with bypassing the electrolytics with a film resistor. It's hard to complain about the price, though!
