RE: the regulator is a limiting factor

One thing to consider is that measurements have shown that noise on the REGEN power can couple into the analog output of some DACs. This appeared when the DAC was running in unbalanced output mode, but did not appear when the DAC was running in balanced output mode, presumably because of common mode rejection in the downstream device.

Were you running balanced or unbalanced? It may be that running balanced mode out of your DAC into your (pre)amp may make things less critical.
