Sturdy build but lacking PSU
ProfStef 17.11.2020
I use this to connect all my USB things to my MacBook (mouse+keyboard, ilok, external drives, controllers, phone, whatever).

The hub is a thin metal brick, extremely solid yet surprisingly light: the handling is very nice. Since it is obviously impossible to provide all these devices with adequate power from the one USB connection to the laptop, an external PSU is necessary.
However, the unusual 5V 4A rating in combination with a 3.5/1.35mm plug makes it extremely tedious to find a fitting PSU. I had to settle for one rated for 3A to get the other two factors right.

A fitting external power supply should definitely be part of the package and the fact that it's missing makes 60€ feel a bit expensive. The build quality partly makes up for that, but it's only a USB hub after all.

Good hub - but where's the PSU?
Petter Rong 24.02.2022
The hub itself is fantastic - even without a PSU it delivers full speed and no issues. I love the fact that all ports are on one side compared to 99% of USB 3 hubs out there, which is great for my use, velcroed to the top of my keys/tracks rack for easy plugging.

But naturally it can only power that much before you need a PSU. And they don't sell one themselves. Additionally, the size of the DC port is smaller than most plugs on PSU with those power specifications. You can get hold of one, but you have to do a bit of research to make sure that the polarity is correct.

I have since upgraded my computer, and a new hub for other peripherals, so this sits as a non-PSU-powered extra 7 ports if I need them. I've had all 7 ports filled, connected to equipment that don't need bus power, and had no issues whatsoever. So I'll only draw one star for not offering a simple solution to power their own hub

Simple and solid operation -- even on bus power
imreych 19.06.2020
I have been using the unit for several weeks. So far no drop outs or other problems. I like the option of being able to power the unit up and have bought an appropriate PSU from Amazon. But, I have only used a couple of times and saw that there was no need. The unit is able to deal with multiple inputs, including MIDI controllers. Why four stars? Well, ... the PSU is not included. (Not sure why Thomann does not sell a compatible unit, btw).

Best Studio Hub
Anonymous 06.01.2016
The best Hub i ever had.
it's metal and solid, it works fine also without the adapter, and the usb 3 is really good.
The only thing i'm against is the fact that is one of the most expensive hub i ever bhought and they don't give power adapter that is not so easy to find out.
You could use an universal adapter but mostly of them are pour made and will be sad power a 70 euros hub with 5 euro charger.
