Hi Jeff, I use these things on my DIY DACs. Subjectively, I noticed a difference on the analogue side and little difference on the digital side. http://users.tpg.com.au/gerskine/greg/jlh%20add-on%20shunt%20regulator.htm The guy I design these PCBs for uses them everywhere in his DIY system, probably a dozen or more of them, and his system sounds wonderful to my cloth ears. There are hundreds of these out there powering DACs, pre AMPs, AMPs, USB power, HD and SSD power. While I can't understand why, people seem to like them. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82648 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
