Find a used power one 15 V bipolar powersupply (often sold on eBay), use voltage regulators and generous amounts of bypass capacitors to reduce the +/- 15 to +/- 12

if i wanted a kit

http://www.paia.com/proddetail.asp?prod=9770R%2D12

would this do the job?

You could probably use the 15 volt PAIA supply. You would still need to regulate the +/- 15 volts down to +/- 12 to power the enfold unit. Or you could buy one of each which would most likely be overkill.

The 15 volt edition delivers 200mA you should check the max. power consumption of all the devices you want to power to see if this is enough.

that's only half of what you want. Hold on I'll go look on RS components.

yes, you can get them at RS components. Because of their ungodly long urls from their site, it's actually shorter to direct you:

Blue "Electronics and Power" - select Transformers

you want chassis mount transformers. I found a nice dual 15V toroidal for 9 quid, for example. Part number 278-6992
