I've recently purchased this linear PSU: 

http://cgi.ebay.ca/MASTECH-HY1803D-DC-POWER-SUPPLY-VAR-0-18-VOLTS-0-3-/360241404257?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53e00f9961#ht_2602wt_907

It didn't come with the output cable, so I had to shop around and find
a suitable pair of banana plugs and a suitable jack for my DAC. After
soldering it, it turned out that it only degraded the sound of my DAC.

So now I'm left with a spare PSU, and am wondering whether it would be
worth using it for my Touch? Of course, the jack I've fitted for my DAC
does not fit into the Touch (standards; the nice thing about standards
is that we have so many to choose from), so I cannot give it a try. My
question is: would it be worth the trouble for me to go out and try to
find the suitable plug for the Touch? Do you guys think it will improve
the sound of the Touch? Or is it just an old wives' tale?

The reason I'm asking is that it obviously not only didn't improve my
DAC, it actually significantly degraded it. Something must be up with
this linear PSU, if it can make the sound leaner than before.
