Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

just to let any UK XL/MP/PX owners know, I have now been waiting 12 
weeks for a replacement power supply. if I had power that would be 
shocking. <ok, its a joke in both senses> - this is truly a useless 
situation that emu has left its customers with. thanks for selling 
out to creative, emu. in future, I'll stick to roland/yamaha or korg.
