K Effects Studer 900 PSU Kit
Regulated PSU
+48V, +/-15V, -25V, -5V
(Kit or PCB + Metalwork only)
Transformer 2x24V not supplied
Studer 900 PCB+METALWORK
Allows to fix the pcbs and the radiator of
the power supply.
The compact unit can thus be easily fixed
in the rack..
For proper operation of the unit, it is advisable to use modules in good
conditions and with coupling capacitors that will have been replaced if
necessary.
The poor condition of the capacitors can greatly affect the sound quality or
even cut the signal. Similary, one will ensure that the various switches have been
cleaned using a contact cleaner spray.
