4ms ROW Power 30Wswitching (see note)12V@1.5A / -12V@.75A / 5V@.5ASome images show an AC external lump for this solution, implying an external and internal linear solution. The user manual specifies a DC external lump, implying a switching solution (needed to derive -12V from +12V). Dealer photos show a DC wall wart, so presumed switching type.Compact and relatively good current rating. Comes as a small euro module.
Needs an external 15-20V power brick, so it’s not wired to AC directly

Measured 103 mV peak to peak and 3.42 mV RMS noise on +12 VDC for lightly loaded system. -12V was worse, measuring 89.6 mV and 8.59 mV RMS noise. Measured with 1:1 probes and 20 MHz scope BW limit. Changing the location of the measurements on the power distribution board had little effect, it had this noise level everywhere.Comes in various configuarations, seems like the upgraded version of the older 5A PSU.$139 (without brick)http://store.synthrotek.com/Deluxe-Power-Module_c_72.html

Shielded switcher, Tiptop Audio DC800 encapsulated switcher. Three 3 terminal linear regulators seen on the board. Believe that the +12V is from a linear regulator from the +15VDC input, and the onboard switcher provides -15VDC to linear regulator for -12 VDC, and also +5VDC from the switcher. Possibly the switcher provides an intermediate voltage (~+8VDC) to linear regulate down to +5VDC.Large power supply and distribution board, 14 20 pin unshrouded headers, 2 Analogue Solutions DIP style sockets.$217.00 with Zeus Access power control panelhttp://www.tiptopaudio.com/zeussb.php

very small and compact. delivers 5V, comes in form as a small module.
needs an external 15V power brick, so it’s not wired to AC directly. I’ve heard several complaints about this PSU from people, things ranging from noise to burned modules. I’m not sure if it’s the PSU or the user not using it properly, but I thought I’d mention it.
