Could you try a listening > test from spdif with and without the linear supply? The addition of the transformer along with the removal of the two inductors made the biggest improvement in the SPDIF. Adding the transformer alone was not as big an improvement. The linear supply improved things across the board but didn't change the pecking order of which digital output sounded better - toslink or SPDIF.
Regarding the Benchmark DAC - I don't have access to one so I can't compare. I do have a few other DACs at home and I can report on how they compare down the road although I won't have time for a week or two. ---Gary -- GaryB ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GaryB's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3169 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18491 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
