Just the point I was hinting at!
This begs an interesting question - almost everybody (including me) says that regulators sound better. A regulator is equivalent to a very large capacitor in that both produce a very small variation in voltage when the current fluctuation has a shorter time scale than the time constant which is RC for a resistor-capacitor filter. Nobody has any idea what that minimum time constant is for an RC filter to produce the same audible result as a regulator. Experiments with huge capacitor banks were popular a few decades ago, but I don't recall any consensus agreed values for the effect.
