Any Rega Ear owners out there, if you have not already, should replace the included power supply with a regulated job. Mike (Pinkfloyd) suggested this as a good tweak to do, and I have been testing it since I got it.
Basically the sound just seems a touch clearer and cleaner, seemingly allowing a bit more detail to come through, and the it copes most noticably with busy sections of music better - not that it was bad in this respect, but its certainly put the finishing touches on what I believe to be a cracking little budget amp. At £25 ($45) it was not exactly an expensive upgrade either. Not an enormous upgrade, but certainly noticable and worthwhile IMO.
You need a 24v AC supply. Only 500 mA is required, but I got 1,000 mA for the extra headroom.
