If I have read Sean's responses correctly he doesn't think the power supply makes a difference in the sound quality of the Squeezebox itself but does suggest that it is possible that RF noise put out by the stock PSU "may" interfere with other components in the system. So, if that is true, there "can" indeed be a difference in final sound quality by substituting a linear PSU in place of the stock switching PSU. The fact that the sound coming from the Squeezebox hasn't changed is neither here nor there. If the reduced RF noise improves the sound of some other part of the system the net effect is still the same, an improvement. I have not tested a linear PSU in place of the stock unit so I don't know either way. But, it seems to me to makes sense to limit the amount of RF noise floating around your system as much as possible. -- SatoriGFX ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SatoriGFX's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8852 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39353 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
