Can I give a PSone 9V without a regulator?

Of course you could give it 9v! However, you'll probably end up with a fried board.

It has to be 7.5v.

All I have heard is conflicting information.

they can only take 7.5 because the parts before the 7805 will fry

i think that's for the screen. does PSone have anything before the 7805? if not, then 9v will work fine

I put 8v into my PSone and it ran just fine. But I wouldn't go over that.

(Just incase it matters I was using a September 2000 PSone. Yes, before they used date codes!
