beppe61,

Your perspective regarding an external PSU for a USB interface is well-taken. Based on my experience, the USB DC power output sounds no better than a cheap 5V switch-mode wall wart. The next step up was a basic 5V regulated linear wall wart, while an audiophile-quality PSU made the most difference for the better. I'm also interested in the tendency of USB digital signal output quality in itself when compared to other digital interface formats, regardless of USB power supply configurations.
