I have a system I’m really happy with. I think it sounds really quite wonderful. But I’m recently widowed and homebound and with considerable idle time I feel the itch to see if I can make my system even better. I spend 95% of my time listening to Roon streaming classical music or opera or New Age, maybe a little International and a little Jazz, but mostly solo vocals, violin, piano, guitar, folk, etc, IOW mid-range music.. I’m thinking of trying to eliminate the much maligned wall warts with Linear Power Supplies.
Has anyone tried an LPS like the UpTone JS-2 on the Roon Nucleus? The JS-2 can handle two pieces of gear and my Netgear Nighthawk Router is nearby and the only reasonable secondary candidate to use. I’d appreciate any feedback, pro or con to help me decide if I ought to spend precious dollars on this. I know this is a complicated area but I’m prepared to believe those who say it isn’t just 1s and 0s traveling the wires, and digital noise is real. I do have an Ether Regen in front of my DAC and I instantly heard an improvement when it replaced my Netgear switch. That said, the JS-2 is more than $1k and one has to ask the question: will I get that much benefit from it?
