[sdiy] ac to ac adapter

[mark s]

in my pretty humble experience it is totally worth a try. there may still 
be enough voltage to give you the +/- DC rails that the device is 
expecting. if not, your rails (and headroom, and overall control voltage 
sources that control various functions) may fall a little short, but may 
still be tolerable sonically.

or, as a friend of mine once said, smoke what ya got !
