The DPS, with all those din power jacks, is great marketting. Each of those empty, lonely, rejected and dejected power jacks on the DPS calls to you every day for another HR device to supply with its excellent power. 
I'm in a similar situation, with only a 2007 Ultra Micro DAC and "The Hefe" DPS 3 lb "Juice Box" to give it the best quality and most abundant power possible. Man it sounds amazing!!! I'm not sure, though, if the big components in the DPS which provide LOTSA (6 jacks worth) of clean, abundant power scale down in a cost-effective way to ones which would provide the same abundance and cleanness of power to, say, 1 or 2 jacks. (Custom sigma-22 anyone?) Myself, I'm a little light in the soldering iron, so I went with "The Hefe" DPS.
