So, I joined this PC Audio group on facebook, but it already seems that the guy running it is one of those guys who gives high regards to all this high-dollar equipment, which is probably so he gets kick backs or samples, like those guys on 6moons do.
Anyway, the latest post is a LINEAR PC power supply by a company called JCAT. Naturally, they suggest that switching supplies are terribly noisy in comparison. I understand that switching supplies allegedly, have higher tendency to introduce noise into your PC's electricals (and obviously, we have examples of terrible supplies on this forum), which may affect your audio output at your sound card. BUUUT I've already tinkered enough to know that I can get very black backgrounds in my audio, and amazing imaging, simply by replacing capacitors, often with films in the line-level signal stages. Of course, the last time I did this, I recapped the PSU, motherboard and soundcard.
In any case, what do you guys think of this? I haven't used any of their stuff, but it looks to me like the MonsterCable of the PC world.
