Since our own UltraCap LPS-1.2 is no longer in production (thanks Intel for putting Altera Max10 FPGAs on indefinite hiatus!), and since our fine JS-2, choke-filtered, dual-output, 5~7.4A LPS is a bit overkill for the EtherREGEN, we are happy to recommend the following affordable and high quality discrete-regulator LPS from Teddy Pardo.

Sound
In general, you’ll experience more clarity, tighter bass, more detail, better dynamics, natural voices, better soundstage etc.
Performance
The small power supply which is provided with most types of equipment is based on a technology called Switch Mode. Using this technology it is possible to create small, efficient, and low cost power supplies. Unfortunately due to their method of operation (high frequency capacitor charging), these power supplies are also very noisy, causing degradation in sound quality. As an alternative, several after market power supplies exist which are usually based on Linear Regulators. These regulators provides an improvement over the original power supply but as can be seen on the graph below are still limited in their performance.
The MiniTeddy12/2 power supply is based on a superior regulator called SuperTeddyReg and provides a significant improvement over linear regulators.
The following graph shows the noise level measurements of the original wall wart power supply (red line), an alternative power supply based on a Liner Regulator (blue line), and the MiniTeddy12/2 power supply (black line). The brown line is a zero Volt reference which is actually the measurement equipment internal noise. As can be seen the Teddy12/2 power supply noise level is very close to the zero Volt reference.

I’m using this for my Sugar Cube SC-1. Couldn’t be happier. Be sure of the voltage that you need for your specific model, it’s listed on your device. Mine was different than the voltage shown on the TP website.

Purchased for use with an exeSound S82 Mk. II. The improvement in sound while not huge was definitely noticeable and well worth the cost of this power supply.
