I record using a Boss br-864 standalone recorder. There's only one mic input and it's not powered. I'm new/poor/blah blah so I'm getting a Studio Projects B1 as a condenser. (I have an SM58, but I'd like a condensor for acoustic guitar) I was looking at this to power the mic:

My question:
-Does the quality of the power supply matter or will any 48V supply do the trick?
The reason I ask is because it's my understanding that different pres make mics sound different(good quality vs. poor quality). I'm just wondering if that same principle applies to power supplies since you're adding one more thing to plug the mic into before it gets to the recorder. Or does the power supply simply do it's job of providing juice for the mic and nothing else(affect the sound)?
Thanks
