    Assuming you are talking about a Schiit Mani, it already has a built in linear power supply. The wallwart is just an AC transformer. Am I missing something?

    Its a much better quality psu then the stock wall wort.
    I’ve see several posts and 2 articles on it with the mani. I doubt the claims of it making it sound better. It will be very easy to verify if it really does lower the noise floor significantly.

    So you bought an expensive AC transformer with some filtering? The Mani doesn't take DC which is normally what an LPS circuit will output. From the Schiit FAQ: "It has a linear power supply (no switchers here!) with an AC wall-wart off-board for even lower noise." I mean as long as it puts out 16VAC, it shouldn't hurt.

    More or less will settle my curiosity on if this will actually help. Worst case I’ll sell it and I can get this stupid idea out my head.
