Depends on how many motors your running and motor size. Zapp 68V PSU only provides 6A which isn't really enough for 4 motors or leaves any room for upgrades with 3 motors.
Can make one for about £70-80 with exactly what you require and bit to spare for upgrades.

Regards the Drives then if your using slaved axis then go with AM882 for stall detection it's a Must Have feature really.
If not then save the money and put to motion control card it will be worth the investment.
