Will a C128 power brick be able to handle an Amiga

No. Bad.

5 9VAC (opposite phase) -12VDC
The obvious other thing would then be the lack of a power switch. The
C=128 supply won't work on a Plus/4 either.
The A600 supply has the same pinout as the A500 supply, but I'm not
sure about the ratings. At least you won't burn anything up (except
maybe the PSU) trying it.
