Having heard the improvments paying attention to the power side of things can make (and it being important enough a consideration enough for the likes of Naim etc.. :)), I'd be interested in this one Stan.
...like the "fraction of the price" comment too..

Here is my power supply now fitted with a Ripple Eater circuit courtesy of a well respected gentleman of this parish. I would say if you have gone to the trouble of a 15v supply for the Standac then the RE is a must.
Unless you're already using a SuperTeddy PSU in which case 'ripple eating' is already incorporated :)
This looks to me like it might be a go.Quote:

UR both Velcome,
Hope it sounds OK Alex.
Ali is it 0.47uF Teflon you are using ? - not sure I want to go that exxy but my amp is 100K in so if 0.47 works for you it will for me even if something a little cheaper.

Yes it is Tony.Try the Clarity Cap ESA's from Hi-Fi Collective,cheap and very good IMO.I've used them before and thy give most of the performance of the SCR at a fraction of the price.Don't think you can better them for a fiver apiece.
Thanks for the recommendation Ali, the price is rather more acceptable :)
