You can get surprisingly powerfull SMPS wall-warts.
The biggest I remember off-hand is around 30W.


The key is to run the transformer at a really high frequency, so you can
fit more power through.


You've still got the problem of the reservoir caps though - these need to
be a decent size for adequate 'music power' ;-)
