Lexicon MC-1; DC-1 Power supplies

Has anyone else had a power supply die in their Lexicon MC-1, or DC-1 or 2?

It's happened to me twice now. They use what appears to me to be a pretty cheap switching power supply. Lexicon won't service these units for less than $600 (though for that they do a complete refurb). I had my DC-1 repaired a couple of years ago by local reputable shop and it cost $200.

I love the units for home theater. They sound great and are very user friendly for setup and control, but wonder about the reliability.

Am I just unlucky?

What did you find on your MC-8? I'm looking for a Power Supply for mine, the symptoms are different than yours, it continually goes into diagnostic mode, so it must be thinking it is being powered on over and over. 
Easy to replace, I just have to find one, no luck so far.
