It does sound like a result of wear and tear there, I've had mine a similar amount of time and it's solid as a rock...

Mine already failed after 2 years. It used to blow the fuses when connecting MIDI out (any contact with the ground, actually).
I got a new one from my reseller. So I guess there may be room for improvement on the power supply side :D

Yeah. I mean it's working but always in danger when the roady comes on stage to fix sth near my cables... the construction sticks out way to far...could be made more solid-like other power supplies...

Me three...

I had my power supply explode about a year and a half ago. It had a nice big crack up the side of it too.

I was pretty upset that I got charged $100 for a replacement after seeing some folks got theirs replaced for free on the forum here...

Not Access' fault though, I made the mistake of getting in touch with the middle man first...

Power supplies are notoriously unreliable, though - and access doesnt actually manufacture the psu. If you buy a laptop, the battery and probably the psu will only come with a 6 month warranty or so...
