HowdyYou asked "I can't think of any reason that a noisy power supply would produce better audible performance than a quiet power supply, can you?"
A switching supply may have more immunity to incoming power line noise, RF, etc. than a linear supply. Since it's operating freq is known it can be explicitly dealt with. As you imply it depends on the capabilities of the manufacturer...
My speculative conclusion (that switching supplies aren't all bad) is no less well founded that the converse and in fact since I've given some examples of well implemented switching supplies I'd say it's less speculative than saying switching supplies are always bad.
I'm not claiming that everyone should hope for switching supplies in components, but switching supplies aren't necessarily evil.
