Thanks.  And for those less technical amongst us, wall warts infamously
deviate from their ratings, usually where the measured voltage is higher.
Like Bruce says, it really doesn't matter most of the time about voltage
because inside the unit are voltage regulator circuits.  It's the current
(or power, depending upon perspective) that is important.

Ed,

The YA-3/PA-3 is the older model, rated at (I believe) 10V and 700mA.  (I
have a replacement supply by Mutec that claims to be the "same
specifications as the Yamaha PA-3," and that's what it is rated at.)

The replacement PA-3B, which came with my AN1x, is rated at 12V and
700mA.  I have both, and both SEEM to work with the AN1x, as do laptop
switcher supplies of 11V @ 1.9A and 12V @ 1.25A that I have lying around.

I suspect that the whole insides of the AN1x are powered by 5VDC, and so
any supply of 8V or greater should work.  I could be mistaken, though.

Regards,

-BW
