RoadRanger:
If you lose track of where someone's posts are you can click on their name and choose "Show Posts" over on the left. BlendedMix's post can be found here:

I didn't delete any of his that I remember?
I do move posts into FAQ's so folks can find answers to their questions without folks asking the same questions over-and-over like on most forums (Kudos to Mike Rivers for that suggestion). Looking at the number of folks who just stop by to lurk here vs those that post would indicate I could increase the message volume here 10x by eliminating the FAQ list but the goal here is to help folks out, not stoke our own personal egos I think? Perhaps if that's your goal also you'll post a link to the actual supply you are using? Thanks! :)

At the least I'm sure most of us would like a cheap spare PS to carry in case we misplace the original or it goes teats up on us at a gig x( . I'd rather buy one that someone else has already tested rather than play "guinea pig" with a new one :eek:.

If folks do want to run a safety ground I'd suggest running it to the chassis of one of the grounded devices in your rack. If your DL1608 doesn't live in a rack a short pigtail at the DL1608 with a spade lug to male faston would let you easily disconnect it from the ground wire. None of that is Kosher of course. The "right" solution as I posted earlier is to have designed the DL1608 to take a three contact power plug so a separate ground could be used. I believe I have a Behringer mixer or two that do this - guess Mackie should have copied them ;).

The reason I haven't posted a link should have been clear, I was dissatisfied with the Amazon purchase. I like to get what I order don't you? As far as it not being "kosher" is clearly incorrect. Since the DL1608 that we all have is not going to be changed by Mackie gratis this is a solution for those that want to lower the noise. I thought the purpose of going with the DL was to eliminate the rack? Parts of the BlendeMix posts are missing. I'm also not finished with my investigation for a recommendation.

Cool, please let us know which one you settle on. Personally I'd rather have the one you received than a two wire.

I still have an amp rack for subs and monitors so running the ground wire to that rack would make sense to me, YMMV :) . OTOH I'm not having the "problem" so...

I may have "split" one of BlendedMix's posts between two threads if half of it applied to a FAQ and half was about something else. I also sometimes go through and "split out" stuff posted in (or moved to) the FAQ threads that isn't directly relevant. Didn't mean to freak you out ;) .
