Yes, this is about an ultra high end DAC unit being 'enhanced', by getting a 'better' power supply ... to those who are disturbed by, or find it ridiculous, the fact that huge amounts of money being spent on improving already absurdly expensive audio gear, the question is, why is this interesting? Well, even though purchasing such "grotesquely" pricey stuff is completely off the agenda for me, what it points out that those who wish to "buy a stairway to heaven" are seemingly following a never ending road - so, again, why?
Well, it's a combination of the facts that extracting subjectively top of the line SQ from digital is a highly precarious operation, AND that the better the playback chain gets, the more you can hear the subtleties that went completely missing before, AND that even the best audio designers don't have a really good grasp on what's going on, when it still misses hitting the mark. The last part is the killer - which is why the rave model from a few years ago now no longer cuts it; it's fallen off the perch of being SOTA
