Power to the piCorePlayer

Could do but why would someone who's purchased an expensive linear power supply want to replace it with a switching type ?

+1 exactly, especially if it's just sitting on a shelf or in a box stored away! Unformtunately, that happens to describe alot of my gear

besides, it's the challenge...

I just think it is going to get too hot.

If those 8V windings on the transformer are in series it might be possible to connect them in parallel with links on the PCB. That would fix the heat issue if the regulator voltage is sorted out.
