Re: more than one power supply

2002-12-03 by Mike Marsh

Hi Nathan -

I run two 900's independently and interconnect the modules with no 
trouble whatsoever. I plan to add a 950 to this, too. My limited 
understanding says that because the modules are all grounded in the 
same way, grounding is not an issue.  I have the two power supplies 
plugged into the same source (power strip) to avoid ugly buzzes.
