Thanks for all the interest my question has generated. Firstly as a die hard audiophile trying to embrace the new technology may i say how informative the forums are. Secondly and on the subject of PSU difference or no difference. There is much hoodoo around the subject within hi-fi circles and I have no doubt that the main reason for my external psu making any difference at all is because I deliberately purchased one that would allow me to use my rather nice IEC terminated mains lead. That was and remains my only motivator for the change. Over the years I have tried all manner of leads, lotions and potions from Peter Belt to Russ Andrews via Jimmy Hughes. Each time the results have been both subjective and system dependant. The slight disappointment was the hum i got, however experience told me that this was a mains loop of sorts and as i have no electrical knowledge whatsoever the solution as ever was to 'unearth' the offending article, in this case the SB3. Notwithstanding the previous comments concerning the psu not being isolated it seems to have done the trick. I am very satisfied with the sound I get from this device and will no doubt continue to pick your collective brain for many weeks until I am absolutely positive I am getting the best out of this terrific bit of kit! Once again thanks folks ! ST
