Also, a 'well enough' regulated linear PSU (anywhere from 7,5 to 12V) can be bought for a lot less than the 500-1000 quid you mentioned.
A popular example under Regen owners (for many of them at least until the Uptone PSU add-on arrives) is this one for example. http://www.ebay.com/itm/111706391166?_tr...EBIDX%3AIT
Or a UK link to the same type from multiple sellers: http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R...wer+supply
This one should also do the trick: http://www.ab-system.hk/index.php?route=...duct_id=64
Interesting. Yes, all in perspective is hard for us non-electronics engineers and DAC designers to judge - so I'll judge with my ears. That is if Customs and/or the Post Office ever send the bl**dy thing on to me - it arrived in the UK a week ago! 4 days to get from California to the UK. 7+ days to get from Heathrow to my house (< 15 miles from Heathrow!)
And thanks for the LPS links Antoine, thats just what I was looking for (the Regen threads over at CA are a bit on the long side for my attention span)! I had only seen the JS-2, which would be expensive to get over here, and just assumed ebay type ones wouldn't be very good.
