I dont doubt that DAVE sounds different when one of these custom power supplies are fitted. Whether better is surely subjective, in the same way as some prefer to use a preamp or headphone amp with DAVE whereas others believe this causes a loss of transparency.
As my experience with Chord dacs goes back to DAC 64 I tend to believe that Rob Watts genuinely thinks the fitted smps does exactly what he needs it to do.
