(Euro)Racks, Power Supplies

[Andrew Tarpinian]

Like Tony has, I like http://www.tiptopaudio.com/

They have the new studio bus coming out which I think replaces the old zeus
bus boards, example of the old one

Or the flying boards which are dead simple as you don't have to mount
anything, but you are limited in power
