As you said, given the requirement to fit in a SKB pop-up mixer case, the
PSU can't be rotated. But also, the cord coming out the back won't work for
the SKB pop-up mixer case because there's no outlet for the cord when the
case is collapsed (which is how I use mine). No big deal for me, but it
would be to future builders in that case.
