    - Level finishing, I just noticed the defects as if we had hammered sheet despite a nut is stuck underneath. Well it's not pretty but it's nice not what we look first so nothing major.
    - Of the four small pads underneath I had to pick one. Again nothing serious but should know. If they read here may ensure they improve their product?
    <ul>

    How would you rate the quality / price?

    </ul>

    € 38 (Thomann course)! great! A BRICK DC or the equivalent in T-Rex was too expensive who knows what power plant may be manufactured in the same factories as the big brands? At that price, and given what you had told me I did not hesitate a single second.
    <ul>

    With experience, you do again this choice? ...

    </ul>

    BC BRICK A little would please me well but the price will be the decisive factor.

    9.98555777999 out of 10 only because of two p'tits defects mentioned above.

    I use it for about a year.
    Before I used a small transformer with a garland and had a lot of breath.
    Since I use more worries.

    It is cheap, robust (I troll by repeating and concert at least twice a week) and complements.

    So if I repeat this purchase, it would be their eyes closed!

    How long have you use it? A few days

    Before I used to be a lot of transformer or a power strip cord (Sssnake). Whatever the solution, I stray sounds in the amp. I even "btement" spar of pedals because I thought there was incompatibility between pedals <=> Acoustic amp (Marshall AS100D) or pedals <=> amp Electric (Hartke PiggyBack) with Ovation guitar legends, and Epiphone SheratonII.

    Now all combinations work quietly: BOSS pedals (CS3 Super Phaser) Modtone (Vintage Speedbox and delay) and BETA-ALVIN CS100.

    My only regret does not supply Digitech JAMMAN => requires a power supply SPECIFICATIONS (1300mA)

    it's been a good year and a half that I use, I had to bcp alim 'different, and quality (t-rex, 1spot, Cioks).
    Excellent value for money: lots of cables (including more than Cioks cables are a real scam), an earth, the power supply cable is detachable (unlike Cioks and t-rex that I 'had had) ...

    I feed:
    - Amp Pignose
    - Two fuzz
    - OCD
    - EHX pulsar
    - An original SansAmp
    - A reverb type malekko spring chicken

    No buzz, no worries. Less than the 1spot which is not grounded buzzer was my Pignose amp.
    I expect a delay, I'll have to see if the 500 mA of sufficient time, with the amp more.

    Negative point: it is heavy and it is ugly: /

    For how long have you been using it?
    - Recently ...

    Did you try many other models before getting this one?
    - No, I did that a universal alimenttion for my distortion pedal, which did not create any noise.

    What thing do you like most/least about it?
    - What I like most is the common interest to all power of this kind: a power supply for all the pedals and it is still quite full. What I like least is that the outputs are not isolated from each other (so it creates a low hum and in my case, small regular crunches) that the manual is too simple, clear and not only English and German. It can interfere with some users. The son is a little too short for my taste too. This device is ve…

It can interfere with some users. The son is a little too short for my taste too. This device is very sensitive to interference with other devices (stomp, ordis, etc ...) and depending on how it is positioned and how far are your pedals, it will create more or less noise ...

    Anyway, once he has found his place well away from any audio, it does its job. The fact that only delivers 500 mA distributed over the 8 9V outputs can be disabling and even eliminated. In my case I only supplies 3 (and perhaps soon 4) pedals so it goes. Provided that after testing, it proved inadequate. I will change between now and then if so ...

    What is your opinion about the value for the price? Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
    - Value for money is good. I think I would do this choice, given the price difference (given the normal performance differences) with other multiple feeds.

    I've had it three months. 2 voltage: 9 to 12V. It is compact and solid in appearance. It is also quite heavy, which suggests that there are several transformers (unopened - I do not want to lose the benefit of the guarantee - I would say at least one for 9v and the 12v). Comes with an extensive connection (including bonds reversed polarity)
    It is integrated into a pedalboard and feeds 3 effects DIY (Orange Squeezer, Trebleboost Brian May, Reverb Guitar Gadgets P75) and a Crybaby moddée. A priori, no noise nuisance residue (cons, I did not realize measures output).
    Frankly, for the price, you do not risk much ... Besides being pleasantly surprised. In fact ... I had not tried others before…

    I put 8 which is very good.

    Very good? :

    saw the price: 38th!
    Given the outputs: 8 outputs and 2 9v 12v
    Given the range of connection that comes with.
    (Cables for power supply, extension, tip mini jack (1 per cons), reversing polarity ect ..)
    Given the strength of something
    Given the service

    I feed my effects in front of the amp with. No particular buzz, no problem.

    Negative points:

    Common mass. The outputs are not isolated from each other. Hence the interest in me having to feed my effects facade. I have not tried but facade + loop: risk of hum ... damage.

    500mA max for 9v only. A bit short. Well it works eh!

    Convenient, cheap, effective. Relatively complete.

    Food undersized. As soon as I feed more than 3 pedals, my pedal marshall vibratem no longer works. Note that the first installation I had already noticed that the LED activation effect pedal my boss DS-2 does not shine enough ...

    The worst comes when I feed my Nova Delay TC 12v, then this is the carnage, almost no pedal does not work. I just the sound of my guitar in clear!

    Solution to the problems of "hum" ... Very good food.

    Harley Benton Power PlantPublished on 12/30/10 at 06:31
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Purchased 1 month ago with big problem of "hum" finally solved: ground loop. So I went to see the old village of electronics that I put a ground lift switch which serves to insulate the ground from the amp. Result (for 5 to € +), over ground loop, no more "hum" and a perfect diet for 43 € :-). I put 9 because it was necessary ground lift on the original product.

    What is your opinion about the value for the price? Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?

    Obviously.
