RE: Re: Acoustic Revive DSIX 12 volt Power supply

Thanks for providing more info, I did google Isao Shibazaki (柴崎功 in Japanese) and Acoustic Revive, and found that he was the inspiration behind Acoustic Revive DSIX digital cable. DSIX is the acronymn for Digital Signal Isolation eXciter apparently ;-). Details of the DSIX can be found on Pgs 176 ~ 177 of issue 111 of Audio Accessories magazine, for which Isao Shibazaki is also working as an audio critic there (latest issue is 130- Audio Accessories is a very established audio quarterly focussing mainly on audio accessories),
Isao was born on March 1948 in Yokohama. In his early career, he worked at Toshiba on black and white television and the stereo amplifier; later he became in charge of the tape deck design at Yamaha. He became an independent consultant in 1978, designing custom-made electronic equipment (he also wrote for M&J audio magazine which he managed) for production such as personal computer peripherals and ultrasonic equipment. After 1982, he focussed mainly on explanation and criticism of audio equipment, becoming a resident reviewer/critic for audio magazines. He also freelances to improve sound quality of audio equipment and musical instruments, providing consultation for remodelling of audio equipment/accessories and electric guitar etc
(Above short bio very roughly translated from http://www.phileweb.com/products/orb )

He may have contributed in design but I do not think he manufactures the equipment, which probably could have been another old veteran.
Anyway, I will further investigate and confirm ;-)
