When I received my Rhodes Stage 73 it came with a bulky speaker that housed the power supply. The signal was't clean, the amplifier was old, cumbersome, and sounded bad. I purchased this power supply and the difference was astounding. Very quiet noise floor, wonderful clarity of tone, and the size is much preferred to the old stage speaker.

Turn your Suitcase into a Stage with clean sound

I got this power supply for my 1978 MkI suitcase as the original 42 year old amp was very noisy and was adding some distortion when using the external outs. This is clean and even allows me to not need the speaker half at all.
