alternative power supply for Garrard 301

I have just acquired a refurbished Garrard 301. Intend to pair it with a 8 layered marine ply or baltic plinth ,or preferably a double layered slate plinth ( if I can find 2 pieces of 50mm slate slab). Tonearm will probably be 12" Reed 2P on a separate platform and matched with Miyajima shilabe. The only issue I have now is separate power supply. Off course I can always buy a Loricraft PSU 301 AR for GBP2500. Beside Loricraft PSU, I read about Wave Mechanics by
Martin Bastins used with Nottingham turntable but its seems a higher powered unit can be use for Garrard. However cant seems to find a source for it. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated

Lewn,
I never thought about using Walker controller which has good pre owned value . What is the difference between Walker & loricraft & Mark proposed psu ? Why do u feel Walker may not be as good? Thanks for your feedback

Kipdent, yes I could have listen to it without the psu. Currently I m using a Raven AC3 with 2 tonearms . As such I wanted to listen to my Garrard 301 at its best with 2 different plinth ie 6" birch ply & 4 " slate plinth with a motor controller . I believe it will sound better with a properly implemented psu
