Have put together a Pass B1 board along with a hifi collective Alps Blue remote module but I'm looking for suitable power supplies an 18vdc for the Pass B1 and a 9vdc for the remote module and wondering if these would be suitable?

Any help much appreaciated or would I be better knocking up something DIY with this transformer?

that's nothing else than pcb with 7818 reg chip on it
if you're supposed to solder leads to xformer , from xformer , switch and leads from reg ........ you're certainly able to make something on your own - preferably with LM317
use universal veroboard , and that's it

Built a B1 last weekend and used this http://www.mouser.ch/Search/m_ProductDetail.aspx?r=709-GST60A18-P1J
Works well and is dead quite.

I've used 24v switching power supply and a Didden/Jung supply on B1. The upgrade was only small changes. Noticeable, but not earth-shattering. I think it's the nature of the B1 itself that is so quiet.
At 20 mA draw, you can afford to use high value R for the supply filter.
I would choose like 22 ohm and 3000+ uF.

This is going a bit over my head now..I'm ok with detailed instructions but that's about as far as my diy skills go
I have a laptop power supply that I used for testing but would like to have everything in one box if I can for neatness and to satisfy my OCD
Would this do the job? With the transformer from my first post

If I was to use a laptop power supply or any other power supply putting out 18vdc would I be able to also feed an lm317 curcuit from it to power my board for the remote volume control?

Just one more question?
The remote module I'm using has a mute function that can be wired in parallel or series but I'm not sure if the B1 will drive into a shorted load without damaging something?

you can freely mute B1 output (short to gnd)
however - if you use output relay in series with signal , you'll hardly hear any difference , I mean deterioration of signal quality
