"Huge failure rate" this simple is not true, there are many 1000's of units out in the field that are just fine, but of course their owners don't shout about it. I believe there was a time where some switch-mode PSU's failed, but most of these where dealt with under warranty. I've been told that the failure rate of the PSU for units sold in the last few [circa 5] years is less than 0.1%.

From Meridian, the linear PSU's certainly are I assume same about the switch-mode. However, given the choice I'd plumb for linear ever day (less to go wrong, better AQ ... win win).

I suggest you contact your local M dealer or one of HH friendly ones that post on here.
