In my view the contribution of a Regen is "circumstantial". I do not know if I am using the term properly, but what I mean is that Regen contribution, and possibly improvement, varies from system to system.
Sometimes such slight improvement can be actually and objectively measured (see my post on WTB discussion). Other times with other DACs a worsening in SQ is measurable.
From a listening point of view I personally experienced an initial pleasurable appreciation upon Regen insertion. Later, by updating USB receiver, I experienced a deterioration of sound (I always employed a LPS). I also believe that many people confuse, or actually prefer (nothing wrong with that), fatter sound with improvement in body of sound. I may have been subjected to the same effect.
