Bought the Chord Qutest. Love it. Hate the power supply.

Everything about this DAC is incredible except for the dinky power supply. I wondered if others didn't like it, so I Googled it and noticed that people were upgrading and noticing a sonic difference!

I am not interested in spending much money, but I would like to replace it with something that is an improvement for my ears and my peace of mind. 

Any suggestions?>

I over reacted. Kudos to the person who gave a recommendation. I guess my hyperbole was too strong in my original post.

👍

Bottomline is you are very happy with your Chord DAC. Congratulations!

I had a Chord Qutest and when I added a Teddy Pardo LPS it was a substantial improvement in SQ. I sold the Chord and put the TP LPS on my Bluesound Node. That also was a significant improvement.

Ian, why’d you sell the Qutest?  Seems like you liked it.
