Apologies for resurrecting an old thread, but I'd agree there is a good market. I'm in the market for something like what ALW talks about for my CD67SE ... did anything come of this? As far as I am aware, in the small (SMD-based) "drop-in" sector has some pretty exxy ($$) items:

Audiocom sells Sulzer Super-regs - http://www.soundlabsgroup.com.au/aud..._regulator.htm
TentLabs sells Shunts - http://www.tentlabs.com/Products/cdu...unt/index.html
Burson sells Suepr Regs (Quite BIG ones) - http://www.bursonaudio.com/Burson_Super_Regulator.htm and http://www.tnt-audio.com/accessories/burson_regs_e.html
These from Effective Audio Mods in Singapore: http://www.effectiveaudiomod.com/Prod_Reg_Ultima.htm

Putting aside the larger ones like the Audiocom Invisus, PFM Flea, PerAnders, the ALW Superreg (and a host of others) has anyone put together a DIY DROP-IN super-reg that my wife could solder up (not kidding, she's an Electronics Engineer, I don't even know which end of soldering iron is the hot end ...).

I make no claims to know nothing about either Audio or Electronics, I guess I just like a DIY challenge and good audio at the end of it (hopefully) without going OTT price-wise. For me that's what DIY is about, although some of these discussions can really become long debates!

Cheers!

A nice, small and rather cheap(!) 3-pin regulator can be found here

Andy L Weekes has published a schematic, and sells boards (or someone sells boards for him). He has a website, it should be easy to find. The circuit is sometimes called 'ALWSR' . The boards are not as small as the ones shown above though.
