CIOKS DC-7

Fengen 07.04.2022

Well, what can one say about CIOKS power supplies?
They are a benchmark for others.
The DC-7 can provide you with most of the necessary power ratings you'll ever need, AC excluded. But if that is something you need, get the AC-10.
If you only need 9V, you can have 7 outputs with 660 mA on each. Given that most pedals only require about 100 mA, you can run a LOT of pedals. Need 12V - yes at a 500 mA limit. 15V - yes, with a 400 mA limit and finally 18V- at a maximum 0f 330 mA.
With Flex cables that give you a plethora of options of splits, chains, plugs, the sky is - almost - the limit.
In addition to all this, you got a 5V - 1A USB output to power a tablet or phone.
And the 24V DC 2A output to link with a DC4. Options, options, options.

CIOKS are built like tank, in a solid housing. M4 threads for mounting it to a pedalboard - fits perfectly in under a Pedaltrain pedalboard.

Better than the Strymon Zuma

Diatonico 21.11.2021

I was looking for a power supply for my board, which includes 3 Strymon pedals, a power-hungry cab sim, and a couple of sensitive dirt pedals that REALLY don't like switching adapters.

The Strymon Zuma was my original choice, but then I came across the Cikos DC7. It's got 1 less 9V output compared to the Zuma, so much is true. But you get:
- choice between 9V, 12V, 15V and 18V for *all* 7 outputs
- 660 mA for each output (compared to 500mA for the Zuma)
- very small size & light, yet no wall wart required
- I had no noise issues whatsoever (though the Zuma is very silent as well)
- 7 standard DC plugs of varying lengths + a 2-way split + a 3-way daisy (and 3 other types as well)
- a 5V USB output and 24V DC aux outlet with max 1A
- power use indicator
- 50 EUR cheaper than the Zuma

It's by no means cheap. But if you need a lot of juice, this is a compact, flexible solution and among the best options available.

Extremely silent and versitale

Mate Shuletu 31.01.2022

I switched to Cioks DC7 with hopes of reducing the undesired noise both from digital pedals and the overall signal chain. Once I plugged my pedals into DC 7 I was amazed by the degree of difference in silence compared to any power supply I had before. As someone recording at home, this comes extremely handy in editing and also brings up peace of mind when playing or recording.

Besides the perfectly clear signal, the possibility of changing each power output into 9v, 12v, 15v, or 18v makes this power supply unit an incredibly adaptable infrastructure for your pedalboard. Having such flexibility makes things much easier for your current pedals or any future changes in the pedalboard. The split cables with 2 or 3-way daisy chain possibility make up for the relatively smaller number of power outputs in DC 7 compared to its counterparts in the same price range, as you can connect 2 or 3 drive pedals into one power output without a noise issue for instance.

It is a light and compact unit with the great build quality. Having such a low height, DC 7 saves up space and adapt easily to any pedalboard or boardless setting. Comes with a neat package, a useful user manual, and a sufficient number of cables. I think no one will regret buying this power supply unit. Don't think twice if you can afford the price!

There are good reasons this is the de facto standard

SebastianJames 09.03.2022

It arrived with a full set of instructions, and a full set of connectors. If you're thinking of ordering an extra connector specifically for some oddball device, double-check the "in the box" section in case it's already included.

It's easy to install and connect, it does exactly what you expect, and it's never failed me yet.

The only unexpected thing is that I haven't seen any of the "too much power-draw" warning lights turn on, so either its documented limits are conservative, or all my pedals draw much less current than _their_ documentation states. Or the warning lights are broken, but that seems unlikely given the overall attention to detail and quality. I did think of getting the Cioks 8 Expander to make sure I had enough power, but I'm glad I didn't, because this thing hasn't needed any help.

Highly recommended. As I said in the headline, there are good reasons everybody tells you to just get one of these.
