Is your MPC Live PSU generic or Akai?

so every part on your car is branded off the maker who made your car? i guarantee you its not. they sub out oem products from vendors.

are you an apple user? do apple make their products? No. an OEM chinese factory (foxconn) make them, just as they make oem products for many others. sure their name is on the charger, and you pay for that.

i can go on and on but not having akai's name on a power brick is meaningless to the overwhelming majority of akai users who don't come on an enthusiasts site to bash it for not having its name on the psu..

and of course one becomes a "fanboy" if they speak up against the grain on a forum. you are a "Fan" too since you bought the product...

you are a "fanboy" of bashing , which is your right.

Exactly, I make music and opinions I post. Not everybody can accept the truth, but I wouldn't call it bashing because I did say the Live's adaptor was pretty good, but their past MPCs definitely was not "premium" quality.

Mine is an FSP brand PSU. They make a lot of power supplies, and I think they're pretty reliable.

Can someone and a link to a psu available to buy in the uk? I’d like a second one
Also, is it ok to go over the specified amp rating?

Thanks

Going over the specified amperage rating is fine because the MPC Live will only take what it needs.

Peace and blessings Richie to you and your fam.

I would like a spare one.
