ah you have the modern version. the output cable on mine gave way. had to bin it :-(
i'm not sure it's the same as the old version - which you can, uniquely, open: it has screws.
cable on that went as well, but it was easy to open up and resolder, good as new now.
also have an older ACA version, unregulated. it's the type that gives 12v without load, dropping
to 9v once connected. this was for the old Boss pedal models. interestingly (...) it does not have
the same benefit/attributes as the regulated PSA version. (i wondered if it could have been the
original supply for sh101, apparently not, though, it is earlier.)
:-) which doesn't help us much for the QYs. as you say, i think they are pretty tolerant - but on
reflection i would like to be more certain about this (therefore shall check the manual...)
