FYI1-Others have upgraded the SMPS units in their Meridians with PSUs from Mauimods.com and have experienced a big improvements, but you obviously have a closed mind and blind faith. FYI2- Meridan uses SMPS units because they're cheap and conform with European power supply directives, but that doesn't mean they can't be improved. FYI3- power supply noise is the biggest cause of jitter in digital circuits.
