No doubt Keces builds superb linear power supplies as well. It’s a huge Taiwanese company by the way and they supply toroidal transformers to many in the audio and other industries...
Good to know, thanks, Serge.

I've also ordered the (new) Uptone Audio LPS-1.2, which supports 5, 7, 9, and 12V output, and there's gonna be shootout in Tombstone. The Uptone has an advantage in that will absolutely not pass any low-impedance or high-impedance AC leakage currents down the DC power cable into whatever it is powering. I don't know about the Keces with respect to this.

I've also got two GhentAudio Gotham JSSG DC power cables coming, and they will prevent that, too.
