Which linear power supply did you get?
I understand the snake oil thing. For me personally, regarding “snake oil” products, to my ears and whoever listens with me, clearly notice a difference when using Wireworld power cables (Electra or higher), Wireworld or Analysis Plus speaker cables (Equinox or higher, Silver Apex) and Analysis Plus interconnect cables (Silver Apex). Some of them cost a lot but I’d be very surprised if any human would say they hear no positive difference.
I even had found some snake oil ethernet cables that are worlds better than the typical cat 5e cable everyone uses. I found that these ethernet cables really help the AirPlay 2 streaming experience and really helps make any of my music sound more cohesive and just “right” as far as musical timing and rhythm is concerned. The Wireworld cat8 Starlight and Platinum ethernet cables, and the 22awg LINKUP STP cat8 ethernet cables. I tried the Wireworld Cat8 Chroma cable and it just didn’t have that substantial noticeable impact like the other two models of ethernet cable. I’ve also used a Cables Matter cat7 and cat8 ethernet cable and they provide a similar small increase in performance, similar to the Wireworld Chroma cat8 cable but still not enough of a difference that I would bet my money on. However the starlight/platinum and the linkup 22awg stp cat8 cables are legit. Luckily the linkup cables cost a fraction of the Wireworld ones and in many respects I’d say they sound more full but less exotic and I would imagine would jive with a much more broader amount of people’s music systems.
FYI I am just a regular guy who has no affiliation or relationship with any of the companies I listed. Just wanted to throw that out there incase of my personal observations are suspect. Anyways I hope this helps whoever this may help. It may save you time via money or experimentation (I’m hoping).
TLDR: Don’t bother with anything that isn’t OCC7N or better from wireworld, exception is the starlight ethernet cable; go straight for the Silver Apex line from Analysis Plus if you can afford it. Cheers.
