The other day, I was testing my new KX-1 with one of these power supplies:
http://www.amazon.com/Mastech-HY3005D-Variable-Linear-Supply/dp/B000E14F56
It caused some awful garbage to come out of the KX-1, which was caused
by the power supply oscillating and generating a bunch of 120 Hz
ripple. They're sold under several brand names, and there are several
versions, all basically the same. I'm guessing I'm not the only one who
was attracted to their low price.
The fix is easy, though it took most of the day to figure out. Contact
me if you need it.
