Sorry if this is answered elsewhere...

Yesterday I was carrying my SF-2's ac adaptor when a green light flashed and the thing shocked me! I then noticed the inner wiring was exposed. Does anybody know where I can get a replacement? I tried radio shack but they didn't have the correct plug size.

Thanks for any help!

Sorry to hear that Connor,
Hopefully the folks at Alembic can make it easy to get a replacement.

A word of caution!

Not only is the connector size important but also the polarity and output.
Centre negative - case positive or vis versa.
AC or DC. That information is generally on the
case of the adaptor.

Go with the recommendation provided by the folks at Alembic.

alright, I'll give them a call tomorrow.

btw Kris, aside from this power supply problem, the SF-2 has been incredible! Thanks again for the sale.

Good to hear,
You'll have her up and running again soon , (and without the green flashes).
All my best

According to Mica in the FAQ section, a "wide votage range is acceptable, from 10.5 - 17VDC with a miniature coaxial connector ... Important: Make sure the center contact of the connector is positive".

I'm away from my rig at the moment. Does this look right?
