Agree; this is foremost in importance…followed by “musicality”, which is somewhat undefinable (but I recognize it when I hear it).
Cheers.

This is true regardless of the playback hardware.

Yep.
I have Bridge II connected to MCRU linear power supply. The LPS made a huge sonic difference, more than what I experienced when upgrading my DAC in the past to RME ADI-2 Pro. I now also have MCRU for the DAC itself.
Having tried a second hand Auralic Aries G2, with its own power chord, I don’t hear any difference either. No major “upgrade” audible.
Roon has always sounded worse to me. AudioNirvana sounded great, but their user experience hasn’t kept up with the times. So I just use Tidal Connect and Spotify Connect - both sound pretty similar at least on Bridge II because it downsamples Tidal stuff to “High”.
What was your experience using the apps’ own Connect feature – so neither Roon nor Auralic’s proprietary software like Lightning?
Can you elaborate on how you did this?
A picture would be helpful if not too inconvenient.
Regards.
There’s nothing to “do”. It’s a power supply unit. You order it from the MRCU website. Link below. It just plugs into the unit instead of the usual cable.
There’s a pic here, let me know if you still need one.
Understood. I thought you were modifying the PS Audio Bridge card in some manner.
Did not realize you were referring to the Lindemann.
That was literally my first sentence 
“I have (Lindemann Limetree) Bridge II connected to MCRU linear power supply. The LPS made a huge sonic difference…”
I think the “Bridge” followed by II, used in context of this thread to mean Lindemann of course, was auto-linked by this forum software to a PS Audio product. That wasn’t my link/URL.
Nope, not what I saw originally…
Here is the quote snippet/ your wrote:
Auto-fill/auto-link strikes again.
In any event, all clear now.
