Hello!

In my setup I have Amanero powered by 3.3V linear PS directly from DAC (not from USB cable).
I am thinking of replacing it with Amanero/Cronus/Hermes combo.

What about power supply?

Is it enough to bring 3.3V (like now) to Amanero, and Cronus/Hermes will get their DC from Amanero?

Or is it needed to bring 5.0V to Cronus/Hermes, and keep Amanero on 3.3V?

Also, Amanero takes about 180 mA. How many mA does Cronus/Hermes need?
I plan to power it from one Placid HD 2.1 supply (it gives about 350 mA), if possible.
Would that be a good solution?

Would separate power supply for Amanero, and separate power supply for Cronus/Hermes improve the sound quality?

Thanks everyone!
