RE: Tuning Linux/MPD/Alsa for best sound on ALIX processor

Ted
Thanks for that tip. Sounds like a pretty serious PS. Reminds me that its time for me to finish what I started with my PS.

I did build a very heavy duty linear PS, but its partially shared with the WaveIO. I built CLCLC supply for the WaveIO. Its fed from a 8A 12V toroid so no shortage of power. I pick up power for the ALIX after the first Choke. I should experiment with a fully dedicated supply. Also might look into some on board adjustments. I use BG F bypassed with silver mica in the supply. Might try replacing the on board caps with oscons and pop a BG right across the input pins. Not very scientific but often produces some pretty good results. Definitely produced an improvement going from wall wort to this supply and absolutely took a jump in the right direction when I swapped in BGs.
