Thought I might just throw out a suggestion here. A while ago, I wanted to try a super duper tweako power supply on my CD Burner, just for grins. I was gonna build one, but then had a thought.
Went to Ebay and found power supplies on sale that were surplussed from laboratories. I took a flyer and bought one. I think it cost me about $40 incl shipping. It arrived, very impressive, weighing about 25-30lbs, a nice meter, rack mountable, only a couple small dings. If I remember right, it had "Bell Labs" and a serial # scratched into the bottom plate. I never did an A-B but it worked great and I know I just felt a little better knowing it had this huge reserve headroom in terms of amperage draw. When I get back to Montana I hope to use it on my SB-3. If I remember I'll attempt an A-B test and let you all know. -- atkinsonrr Transporter, Quicksilver V4 Monos, Vandersteen Model 5A speakers.
