Two considerations. First, what some call "blind" conditions can still
leave a lot of room for subjective intrusions into the results.
Well-done blind testing is hard work with lots of opportunities for
corner-cutting. 

Second, there are a lot of issues in audio other than just jitter. That
seems to have become a catch-all term for placing blame. If there is a
sound quality difference with the power supply used, it may be nothing
more than RFI contaminating an analog stage and have zero connection
with the digital aspect of the playback.
