Visual Sound 1 Spot Combo Pack or Dunlop DC-Brick Power Supply?

I plan to get one of these to power the following:

Korg Pitchblack +
Boss RV-3
Line 6 DL-4
MXR M80 Bass D.I.

The advantage of the Visual Sound Combo is that it comes with the adapter for Line 6 pedals. But the Dunlop Brick Power appears more portable and less messy.
So, anyone that has used any of the power supplies, which one do you recommend?

I own the 1spot and it's really awesome. Not sure how the Dunlop is less messy.

I'm all about brick power: less noise and all you have to plug in is the brick to the wall.
It's much, much easier for a guy like me. Oh, and you don't have to worry about pedals with odd voltages. I like the Voodoo Labs. :)

Not really. It "could" power the DL4, maybe, but not reliably or well. Here is a thread on the subject: http://line6.com/support/thread/55666 Especially read the last post.
Basically if you are going to use a DC supply, it needs to be higher than 9V; and the 1Spot and Powerall are just 9V. Godlyke does make an adapter to juice the output up to 12 or 18V, but I couldn't promise that it would work, adapters are finicky things.
