Hi guys: haven’t viewed this thread for a couple of yrs at least (since I bought a LSA, after the gracious, generous help of Pubul57, Clio09, and George).
Maybe you are interested: I upgraded my LSA by wiring the power supply direct to the board (removing the psu connector). It was beneficial, but relatively so long ago I can’t be specific about what difference I heard.
Oh, I also replaced the RCAs with WBT NextGens to (supposedly) impedance match my WBT NexGen/ICs, and added a separate earth lug to the LSA chassis, that is wired (separately), directly to the green mains Earth wire behind a dedicated mains outlet (so the LSA is like a star earth in my system. I tried in vain to get George to add an Earth lug when I purchased).
(It gets worse! I also rewired my LSA with the same silver litz of my ICs.
But other than the psu wired direct to the board, it’s all far too laborious – I’m not even sure I should mention it!)
I’m using the original supplied wall wart psu, so your discussions re power supply are v interesting. Seemingly its sm, according to George's suggested AM radio test which gets noisy when brought close to it.
Thanks guys for the interesting posts.
