Hi,
Please do post a coupla examples.  I purchased my power supply from Radio
Shack, and I'm curious to see if the official PSU will make a difference.
My sid makes noise, but it sounds more like the oscillators ringing out than
actual line noise from the output.  Maybe the power supply I have is
fine...not sure??

Thanks!
