Does anyone have this power supply, is it any good?
Or can recommend similar 30amp unit.
To power my Xiegu G90 and XPA125B linear amp.

I'm not a fan of switching power supplies, but linear ones are significantly more expensive. I'm really satisfied with my Diamond GSV3000. This would also be an option: VOLTCRAFT FSP-11330

Deb, I don't have that one, but have the heavy linear PSU version that shares the same case as that one. I am more than happy with my one. Fans on the linear ones can be loud, but easily modded in various ways, see Victor's post on his big brother model..
I've seen lots of people in utube videos using both the linear and the switch mode version you posted, or one of their many rebrand name versions. I haven't heard of anyone having any complaints or issues. They do the job.

I have that PSU. I have been using it to run a KL400 amp without any problems for the last 5 or 6 years.

I have this one below, which looks very similar except for difference in amp's, but under different name, had mine a few years now & had no problems running radio + amp off it.
