Kinda on the fence as to the proper location for this post so move if necessary.
I have the typical failed Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 5.1 PC speakers. I've already gone the route of having Eliot fix the AC/DC converter and other parts about two years ago and I don't want the sink the money into this again. Eventually I'll get a proper receiver. The current issue seems to be on the board after the AC/DC converter. Anyway. So I'm going to replace the built in amp system with a few Lepai 2020A+ t-amps. I already have three and will be getting fourth then a mono amp for the sub. I also have the ProMedia 4.1 system where I'm taking some speakers to make a 7.1 or 7.2 system. I digress.
Point of this is, I don't want to have a power strip with four different wall warts plugged into it because it's taking up all the plugs and a lot of fat transformers clogging up the space. There *should* be a way to get a power supply wired up to the four t-amps in parallel(?) (need about 14v, 5A for each t-amp) to just need one power socket. I'm not an EE and I haven't use my EE classes since college.
Has anyone gone this route and tried the same thing? Also, any recommendations on a quality, clean power supply to achieve my goal?
Thanks!
