I need a ps that outputs 24vac, for a mic preamp.
The supply that came with this preamp was a cheap wallwart type, evidently just a tranny encased in plastic.
I'm wondering if I might getting better sound, or more stability or whatever, with a higher quality unit, but not sure if there even IS such a thing with an AC - to -AC supply. So... IS THERE?
For instance:
-----------------------------------------
Is there such a thing as AC regulation (In a small package) ?
I've seen some supplies with a "current limiting, earth ground" secondary.
Is this a good thing, and something to pay extra for no matter what might be inside the preamp itself?
How about using a 24v laptop supply? Those have some kind of regulation, no? (Or is it "no" ? )
How about shielding? I can always add ferrite beads to both the input & output wiring, but is there more to it than that?
