Members HaloJem Posted January 6, 2009 Members Share Posted January 6, 2009 I have a GRX4 on the way - and do not want to blow more cash than I need to on a power supply... I just priced the Voodoo 2 unit and um, yeah...options that will not blow up the GRX4? The GRX4 is the only unit that needs power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Spacehog26 Posted January 6, 2009 Members Share Posted January 6, 2009 Anything that's not switched-mode should be fine... so the Boss PSA120 (not the PSA120S) or something similar would be fine. I run mine from a Burkey Flatliner Pro, but that's even more expensive than the Voodoo unit. It is however also powering a Radial Headbone, 4 pedals, my line mixer and my All Access.

Members jimosity Posted January 6, 2009 Members Share Posted January 6, 2009 I have used a Boss PSA120 to power two GRX4's for years and it's always been fine. I used a OneSpot for at least a year before somebody started saying that you had to be careful what power supply to use, but I never had any issues with the OneSpot powering two of 'em plus a couple pedals...

Members HaloJem Posted January 7, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 7, 2009 I'm asking because the PSA120 has been discontinued and is somewhat hard to find - several merchants only have the switchable version (or they don't differentiate between the two). I shot the question to Mario @ Axess Electronics - so we'll see what he says is a legitimate AND resonably priced unit. I find it hard to believe that the only ok power sources to run a $250 unit is $200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Spacehog26 Posted January 7, 2009 Members Share Posted January 7, 2009 Looking at the list here, you basically need something with a transformer, not digital switching. So the Danelectro DA-1 or the Maxon AC210N would be fine as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked at my Boss Loop Station power supply this a.m. - and its a 200mA / 9.6V just like the Axess unit (its called PSA120-T) ... which are the same specs for the PSA-120. Thanks! I didn't want to program the Axess unit...and then blow it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pjrake Posted January 9, 2009 Members Share Posted January 9, 2009 i use the power pedal 2+ to power both the GRX4 and CFX4 for about a year now, no problems so far. -PJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
