hi, doing a bit of research on R2R DACs to pair with my Aune S17 Pro amplifier and was recommended this from another head-fi thread by Marlowe. I'm a little confused with the power supply situation; I read that if you're connecting the source via USB (as I will be), you do not need a power supply as the USB would power it... but would adding a power supply regardless change anything to do with the sound?
I can find this DAC at pretty good prices off aliexpress but I'm mindful of the fact I probably won't get a power cable with a UK plug (from my understanding) and I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use one of those plug adapters for a 240V DAC. although again, when it comes to electronics, im not too well-versed in the technical aspect of it! any comments appreciated, thanks
