[sdiy] help in finding PSU for A&H Mod2 channel strips?

[Todd Sines]

Hi,
[sending this again, didn't appear to go through first time]

my first time trying to rack some channel strips. I have 2 Allen &  
Heath Mod2 channel strips that require +/-24V power at 1 A, running on  
120v. I'm additionally interested in adding some transformers [Jensen,  
Lundahl, Sowter?] on the input path to use as a mic pre. Should I  
worry about Phantom Power... and how difficult is this and what other  
power requirements will this need? I've never done _anything_ like  
this before.

Looking for a source what seems to be a fairly standard 24v PSU -- is  
there anything I should be weary or on the lookout for?

this is what I was told by the guy from Gearslutz that sent me the  
schematics.

here are some schematics if you feel like having a glance.
