    Your power supply is 9V negative-centred. The RC-2 is 9V also. So all you need to make sure of is that the RC-2 connection is negative-centred too.

    I have a couple of Boss pedals and I've used non-Boss power supplies with them, with no problems.

    i read that a HARLEY BENTON POWERPLANT works with boss pedals. they are on thomann for just shy of 40 quid and power more than one pedal(i think up to 8) at a time, thinking of getting one myself
    but if you just want a power lead,if the THOMANN NT AC/PSA says it works with boss, has to do what it says on the tin

    Yes there's matching polarity between the pedal and power supply so you're good to go. Most if not all boss pedals have polarity protection so even if you plugged in the wrong supply you won't do much damage. At most you'd blow an easily replaceable diode but you don't have to worry about any of that with that supply and pedal.

    I use that power supply with my RC20 without any problems.
