Cioks DC7 review- it's awesome

[scubaduba]

The RCA connectors annoying as hell.

I'll take the RCA connectors any day.

can you use Eventide power cables with a Cioks supply? like the ones below for instance

Eventide 1035 - 2.1mm Ang-RCA Split Flex Cable, 30cm & 50cm

Looks like the same RCA style connector as the Cioks branded ones.

No reason it shouldn't work. I can't imagine they retooled for different connectors while keeping everything else "virtually" identical between the Cioks and Eventide branded versions.

Yes they are the same cables. Cioks makes Eventide's power supplies.

Just popping in to say again how much a I love this power supply. Mine is currently driving this board

Yeah Eventide supplies are Cioks supplies!

I use the Eventide version after 7-8 years of problem-free use of a Cioks AC-10 (which still works perfectly, just wanted something lighter, smaller and more powerful for DC volts). Cioks stuff is top notch!

Hi, I have a cioks dc7. Today I bought a Becos CompIQ PRO Stella Compressor (I hope will arrive soon ).
Manual says “Use a DC Power Plug Ø5.1/2.1mm, with a barrel longer than 12mm (15mm recommended).”
I can't find ciocks cables with long barrel... I have to do it by myself?

The standard Cioks cables worked fine with my Becos.

 

[derekale]

Ok thanks! I’ll try

I have a long run (15') from my ciok to my mike effects petal. Can I use a standard RCA wire with a Cioks adaptor wire on the end to connect?

I’m sold. Recently scored an Eventide Powermax used for a good price. Within a week I found a good deal on a DC-7 new. Just installed today, and for the first time EVER, (24 years in this house), the fixture on a rheostat in the music room is totally silent.
I have few complaints about my journey from my first One Spot daisy chain, to 3 One Spots, to Voodoo labs, to a Truetone CS7, to 3 MXR isobricks, (simultaneous service, not replacements). They all work well and perform as designed.
The Cioks DC-7 is simply a better design. Footprint, flexibility, current on tap, price/performance, and noise filtering, puts it on a whole nuther level.
I’m running 3 18v pedals, a current doubler for my HXFX, and a couple of daisy chains. All that’s left is to find something I can run off the usb power.
Highly recommended.

Phone charger?

Phone charger?

I was thinking maybe something more like an LED light strip, or essential oil vaporizer. Or, my PAX charger!

PAX? In these times? C'mon brah...get on the edible train. Much better for your lungs. I had a PAX2 and that thing still made me cough. Protect those lungs in these uncertain times!

Non-weed smoker here.... I had to Google pax and pax2...

I consider edibles to be an important part of a well balanced cannabis regimen.

Is this whole board powered by only the DC7?

 

[jbybj]

No, by two DC-7s, one of them Eventide branded. One is underneath the SV-Pre, the other is under the Carcosa. 14 outputs powering 18 devices, and the HXFX uses two outputs.

 

[jumbo_steelie]

Awesome thanks man! Looking for something to power a similar but smaller setup. And something that can handle the hxfx like what you've done. Cheers!!
