You may use this power supply. But the max. output current is then only
500mA. Please refer to the information on our website:

www.doepfer.com > English > PRODUCTS > A-100 > DIY case kit:

"to operate the kit an external transformer with 14-16V/2.4A AC is required,
the current of the transformer has to be twice the value of the +/-12V DC
current, the max. value is 2.4A (corresponding to 1200mA for +/-12V DC),
even smaller current output is possible; the current output of the power
supply is half the current of the external transformer as the currents for
both voltages +/-12V are required (if e.g. the transformer outputs max.
1000mA the max. power supply current is 500mA for +/-12V)"

Best wishes
