Power supplies are an unglamourous part of guitar gear, but still extremely important. Here’s our list of the best power supplied on the market. We’ve also included a video from EytschPi42 on how testing hum and noise from different power supplies.
1) Voodoo Labs Pedal Power
The standard when it comes to power supplies. From Pedaltrain to Salvage Custom, many pedalboards have specific mounting solutions for the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power.
2) Walrus Audio Pheonix
Walris Audio have taken the humble power supply, and made it “boutique”, custom wound toroidal transformers and stunning graphics.
3) Cioks DC5
Cioks have a large range of different size power supplies, but their DC5 is a fully isolated power supply that fits under the smaller Pedaltrain Nano, Mini and Metro boards.
4) Pedaltrain Volto
With the Volto, Pedaltrain have innovated and produce a power supply that fits under their smallest boards, and contains a lithium battery for up to 36 hours continuous use.
5) Diago Micropower 9
While isolated power supplies are nice, there is still the place for the daisy chain power supply and Diago have perfected it with their Micropower 9. High quality, low noise and Diago also have a range of adapters including an isolating adapter if necessary.
