Bugger, now I'm tempted again!
I was kind of waiting for the Uptone thingy, but that could be a while. Also it means having a crappy supply powering the supply and that just sounds stupid.
Hopefully Antoine will post some thoughts on his new supply soon, but as it replaces 4 things, it might not be a fair comparison. Obviously it would be lovely if someone could compare the ifi vs the SR5.
One rail would do me but the sr5 sounds quite a bit better (he seems a lot more enthusiastic about it) and would like to try ethernet optical isolation (if I can ever work out exactly what to get) and then I could use it for both.
But same dilemma. £700 for a PS on a £500 device? Some say it makes a huge difference. Even the over enthusiastic Chrus Connaker said it was subtle (but still desirable). It's also probably one thing I really wouldn't want to be stuck with if it didn't make a big difference. A few USB cables and what not are ok, they'll always be useful for something, but a specific, chunky LPS......
I guess I'll wait for your move Confused.
