Just built a Linear power supply, not quite to John's design as I had difficulty getting a choke that would fit into the box size I had to work to. I will fit a choke when I find a source. There was an improvement to my system. Smoother treble more clarity and detail. Probably about the same as 1 1/2 to 2 db improvement in signal to noise My Touch, DAC and CDP were all fed from the same mains distribution box. My CDP performance improved cofirming to my mind that the Touch Wall Wart was dumping unwanted signals back onto the mains 'infecting' my DAC and CDP ( both have linear supplies). The improvement in DAC performance benefiting all its inputs. A very worthwhile mod in my book and thanks again to John for sharing his knowledge.
