The on/off switch is my main complaint, but I can't help feeling like
the power supply was done by Cambridge Audio on the cheap. For instance,
sometimes the sound drops out for a fraction of a second when I switch
my CRT TV on.

Not necessarily due to mains wiring coupling, even if it is changing to
the
transformer will *not* help with that. Try an external mains filter (with
a
switch!).

I'd like one but can't afford one at the moment.

If you can afford a new transformer, you can afford a filter!


I'm still convinced that this PSU can be improved in some way, shape or
form.

As a rule equipment is designed to a constant level of build quality &
performance. If one part is cheap and shoddy then so is the whole thing.
Bearing in mind what you said about audio drop-out when you switch on your
TV, I suggest that the DAC is no better than it's transformer.
