Are the instruments the same input? Like 9V is probably most common but im guessing alot of your gear could be 4,5V 6V, 9V, 12V maybe even 15V or 19V and probably 230V AC with inbuild supply. Check that first. If theyre all the same then its worth looking into. If not youre going to fry some instruments.

voltage mostly 12.

I was thinking of getting one 12 one 9 and they are all 1A or less

then it should be a simple thing to do just make sure all of them are DC and not AC (rare after downpowering though). just sum all the ampers to get a big enough supply. Get something with variable voltage so you can buy the same device for both chains (9V, 12V). What you need to look at are the total amount of ampers on the existing supplys outputs, not inputs, to get the correct effect for your next supply. My computer supply is 19V, 4,5A which equals 85W. Four of five of those and youll have a pretty big supply, which would generate alof of heat. Put it under your window.

example:

but that one is 120V input (US), i dont know where you live.

i can add. The point of this thread is to find out where to get such a thing. What brands to stay away from. Links to model and brands or stfu

lol thats just stupid. you can add as many devices as you want using screw terminals instead of connectors.

firsly, its not sure all your devices + and - are the same, with a terminal you can polarize any way you want making it correct for all devices. secondly the connectors sizes arent necesarly same size so you might look forever for cables with the powersupply female connectors oposite male connector in one end and the suited instruments connector in the other end. with terminals you just cut of the existing supply or get a bunch of new cables:

i don't want to fuck around with wiring. I want a solution that assumes there are people that would rather jhust spend money than \fuck about with this. I can always buy more than 1 unit.

then i suggest you hire an electrician to fix this for you so you wont burn down your house, if youre afraid of wiring yourself. solutions like the one you posted are low end noisy heaty crap with low ampers and will melt down eventually. theres only one shortcut when it comes to electricity and thats the one you dont want to experience.
