Recommendation on Power Supply

Post by Quint »

I'm working on putting all of the pieces together for a summing mixer. It will use the following powered units:

3 x JLM Palpigrade
1 x JLM Tardigrade
3 x JLM Sum8
1 x CAPI ACA

What, among the various JLM products, would be recommended as a power supply to power all of these units inside one rackmount enclosure (1u high)?

The CAPI runs at 16v (or is it 15v?), and 16v is right in the middle of the range available for the Palpigrade, Tardigrade and Sum8, so it sounds like I'd be looking for a power supply that can put out 16v. Also, it looks like I will have about 3.5" x 6.5" of available space to work with to fit a power supply inside the back corner of the enclosure.

Power station v5 EM kit or Kraftwerk or V6 kit.
Run the JLM gear on +/-V1 set to +/-16v
Run the CAPI gear on +/-V2 set to +/-16v
Use 2 x 18vac transformer of about 50VA
