Some time ago I had to repair the PSU of my Behringer mixing console, resp. a friend had to do it, since it was needed to unsolder with hot air and I don't own a hot air soldering station. It did work for some years. IIRC it were some capacitors that needed to be replaced by some for higher voltage. Most of the head of the ADA is above the PSU. My is on a shelf ~ 1u headroom at the bottom and ~ 2u headroom at the top. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
