largo Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 When I was packing up the gear after last gig, I noticed the wire on the power supply to my HA400 headphone amp was starting to split. Stupidly, it's been left in the trailer with the rest of the gear and so I'm not sure what to buy as a replacement. Could anyone point me in the right direction? Worst case, I buy a whole new HA400 unit as they're not that expensive, but fingers crossed & thanks for your help Basschat buddies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS_freak Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 This is the adapter isn't it? If so, any 12v adapter off eBay, centre positive will do you. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12v-2-amp-5-5mm-x-2-5mm-x-10mm-center-positive-replacement-power-supply-adapter-/161129756584?hash=item258414f7a8:g:5DwAAOxyOypSYAeW http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SY-12040-BS-AC-DC-ADAPTER-12V-450MA-POSITIVE-CENTRE-124169-/112158390940?hash=item1a1d293a9c:g:Z~kAAOSw8gVX9TFt http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-300ma-0-3a-DVE-DVR-1230UK-4114-input-center-positive-connector-Mains-plug-/262660615637?hash=item3d27caedd5:g:QUYAAOSwCGVX9hkn http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12v-300ma-0-3a-DVE-DVR-1230UK-4114-input-center-positive-connector-mains-plug-/221361266624?hash=item338a28dfc0:g:KrYAAOSwHnFVhkMe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
largo Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 That looks like the one. So, just double checking. The power supply doesn't have to be rated at 150mA? Will it only draw the current it requires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same principle applies with fx pedals... you can keep daisy chaining power to run multiple pedals off one supply but if you attempt to draw more power than the PSU can supply, your pedals will start behaving like they've all run out of batteries!

[/quote] Not sure what you mean by "starting to split" but if it's still working maybe just fixing it with insulating tape would be okay ?
