Don't know what your question is. Looks like your answer is in your question. There is sufficient rectification and regulation so you can use almost any wall transformer available. Radio Shack has exactly what you need. I've used a transformer from 9vac to 15vdc with no problem. Even though the AC ones will work, the DC ones usually have an extra filter cap in them for added filtering but not really necessary.
