I have a Chordette QuteHD DAC. The wall wart if comes with does the job, but I'm curious to see if a 'better' PS will make a difference. |

Qutest requires 5V power supply, so you are putting a regulator on the 12V battery? |
I'm in agreement with this guy., posted on March 31, 2024 at 07:33:53 | |

View YouTube Video Yes, and here's why. In a Stereophile interview, McGowan, recounting the same story, says it's because of the much lower secondary impedance of the electrically 'oversized' power transformer. |
