RE: Speaking of Linear Power Supplies....

"Thes are not "noise" currents. They are simply current transients caused by digital switching."

Any current transients other needed to drive the capacitance of the digital audio output lines is "noise" as far as I am concerned. This includes charging up traces on circuit boards, charging up transistors and wiring on chip, and especially short current spikes when CMOS inverters change state, typically related to clock pulses.
