Well, after much thought I've decided to stick with my computer as my main source. Being that my computer is going to be my permanent source I want to do anything (within reason) to improve the sound I get from it. So, I've been wondering--would replacing my computer's power supply with something better improve the sound? My current power supply is the stock one which came with my computer (a Compaq). I don't no much about computers but I imagine it's not of the best quality (ie does not give the cleanest power).
So far my computer setup consists of Winamp and Foobar with upsampling and ASIO enabled and a M-Audio Revolution as my soundcard. I intend to try playing sound through the rear outputs of the Revolution as well (a la Glassman's recomendation). I will also likely upgrade to a RME Digi 96/8 PAD within the next few months.
Would a better power supply lead to a perceptible increase in sound quality now with my Revolution or in the future with a RME?
