CIOKS DC7 Power Supply

I wanted a smaller, more powerful power supply with more options and no noise for my pedalboard. This Cioks power supply fits that description perfectly. Loads of power with variable power options. Came with all the cords needed to get everything hooked up and powered on. Super quiet, totally isolated and the power is stable.If you're in need of a powerful, durable, safe and quiet power supply... get a Cioks... you won't be disappointed.

Rock solid power and very versatile

I am very happy with this pedalboard power supply. I combined it with a Cioks DC-4, for a total of 11 individually powered pedals. First: it is quiet! I've tried cheaper power supplies, but those never worked for me. This one is expensive, but worth every penny. Comes with every cable you could need and then some. A good selection of short, medium and long cable lengths makes keeping things tidy below the board easy. I just used the standard "Boss-style" center negative cables, but they also include specialty cables for your positive polarity pedals (Line-6, Eventide, etc.). Very pleased. You can't go wrong with this power supply.

Easy to set up (just connect it).It's thin!, so it fits comfortably in any pedalboard, and the needed screws are supplied.Solved my signal AC noise issues.Powerful enough to connect my Quad Cortex using the Crux adaptor.

KNOW THIS: This unit has jacks for *RCA phono plugs*, not 2.1mm barrel-style plugs like other power supplies such as Voodoo Labs. This is important if you already have a variety of barrel plugs to work with your stuff, including current doublers and voltage doublers and 2.5mm plugs: you can't use them with this. It's not immediately evident or called out that I can see. Yes, once you know, you can plainly see the phono jacks in the pictures -- but if you haven't used phono plugs in years, or never have, you won't recognize them.That said, great unit! Plenty of power in a small size, with no bulky external power supply, no other "modules" to buy, just a regular IEC power cord. It comes with a good selection of cables with phono plug on one end and barrel plug on the other (plus a couple polarity reversers and even a 1/8" TS plug), and you can buy current doublers and whatnot, separately. I happen to have a bunch of phono cords that I no longer use, and good soldering skills, so I adapted my own current doubler to power an HX Stomp.I got one at a somewhat lower price, and it arrived previously opened and re-sealed, so I assume people are sending them back when they see the phono plugs.

I originally was using a Donner power supply, but one day my BOSS pedal that was plugged into it. Stopped working? I couldn’t figure out what happened? I tried to fix the pedal, but no matter what I did, it just wouldn’t work anymore. After doing research. I found out the Donner power supply does not offer isolated power. It’s basically a daisy chain, so I figured somehow the power supply fried my pedal. I didn’t want to risk damage to any other pedal, that’s when I researched other better pedal power supplies. After a lot of research I went with the Cioks. Just for a laugh I decided to plug my broken BOSS pedal, and to my shock it worked again! It was like the Cioks gave it the jolt it needed. I also noticed all my other pedals seem to sound stronger like they too are getting more power. I’m am very happy with Cioks. I know it cost a lot, but as they say buy once, cry once. Save your pedals and yourself some headaches, and buy the Cioks. You won’t regret it.

I picked this up to power a bunch of synths and FX for a portable synth rig. Easily powers a wide array of devices, and I was even able to power a few low-power USB devices from the USB port (via hub). Only downside is that I had to special order a couple cables because the included cables were right angle and I didn't have enough clearance to use them for two of the devices that I've got. While this is a bummer, I wouldn't knock them for it, as I'm sure I'm a little outside the typical use case here.

This is an expensive power supply, but it puts out the amount of power I need for modern pedals and hasn't produced any hum that I was getting with my older Voodoo Labs Pedal Power Supply unit. It came with just enough cables for my needs, but I wish they included a few more. You can configure each output for different voltages, which is handy. The mounting screws are tiny, but they seem to hold well and the mounting holes line up nicely with my Temple Audio pedal board. The compact size is a plus, as it will fit onto or under most pedal boards. If you need more power there are "expander" options available.
