These also offer great value for those that insist on linear supplies (link).

Most audiophile linear supplies sold in the US are the exact same, sourced from China and rebranded PS with a grossly elevated price. I know one popular and reputable equipment maker/seller that was selling their branded "audiophile supply" (I compared it directly to one I purchased at aliexpress) for $165. The one I got from ali was $35/free shipping. BTW, they kept blowing up since they were underrated for the application. I was able to source the transformers that blew from ali for $15 and was able to salvage them for more suitable applications).

All these supplies have you specify the voltage before you check out. If you take off the top, all have the familiar, small, blue pot that can be adjusted to any voltage within the unit's operating range.

LOL; every audiophile supply must have "overpressure protection"!
