You are being made fun of because you are talking about fancy power supplies for audiophile gear, on the wrong kind of forum.
And the unlikely "blind" test.

Conclusion is always the same. Using a fancy or linear supply, only goes back to showing no benefit with the DACs Amir has tested.
If the supposed benefit can't be measured in analog domain... it simply isn't there. Better ripple/cleaner power won't help.
is there a way to work on well removing that? can i learn not to hear a difference so my brain aint playing tricks on me
id love for every dac to sound exactly the same and for there to be no difference if i change the power supply
Now when i know its just my brain playing tricks on me!
Why do some people hear it differently though? i get that you might want something to sound better if it costed you more money but for me personally its not just about hearing an improvement more like hearing a difference between different dacs
What if i owned two identical dacs and heard them at different volumes would i think they sounded different? might i think one had a bigger soundstage etc?
Can speakers or headphones ever be as transparent as a dac?
Oh and is the bigger soundstage i hear with the musicstreamer hd my imagination or is that reality? or is the smaller soundstage of my v90 dac reality?
There seems to be a finality if you follow the scientific thread all the way through at some point well there is no way to make something sound better there is no way to make the audio anymore life like we reached the end of the dacs they cannot be improved further and make any audible improvements same with headphone amplifiers right?
at that point what point is there to make anymore measurements?
But why keep making measurements then ? how badly would a dac have to measure not to become transparent?
Can speakers or headphones ever be as transparent as a dac?
What other operation would there be except you know listening to it? and why care... if a seller says okay this dac is even better it has even better specs... though hey you wont be able to hear it!
why would anyone buy it anyway even if the data was accurate and who would be upset if the company lied ? personally i would not be that upset... Oh wow that guy lied about the data of that dac ... though even if the data was true we would not be able to hear it anyway
I thought we had concluded that dacs are audibly transparent? so hearing ability really shouldnt matter if that is the case
And i dont think that is silly at all if we conclude through blind testing that the soundstage through the music streamer hd is the same as the v90 that means the bigger soundstage in the music streamer hd was all inside my head
that is proof you can directly improve the audio quality by just using your brain and i find it an exciting prospect if that could be done consciously
Rather than going out spending more money buying speakers and headphones and experimenting with tubes in a way all i am doing is just swapping out dacs for something else
