Back to APS troubles, I can't help but think that some plain, old-fashioned, forthright honesty would go a long way.  I recently read some posts from an APS wonk claiming outright to an HT group that there is absolutely no difference in sound from the Pure Power whether the thing is going only from battery or it is running from wall power.  In fact, he cited this as absolute proof that the thing "works", as advertised.  Too bad it is more important to justify than it is to just keep listening and trying to get it right.

Paul, what APS troubles are you reporting? Also, what problem you have that somebody claiming that there is absolutely no difference in sound from the Pure Power whether the thing is going only from battery or it is running from wall power?  I reported the same things with unit that had no defect with charger. My is unit that has this defect do has a very minor difference between running from buttery and running from wall power but I did stressed that the difference is negligible and has no practical significance. You call that person wonk but frankly I do not think that it is justifiable.  That person (I do not know who it was but he was not a fool) was absolutely right demanding that his unit shell run from battery and from wall with the same sound quality and he was absolutely right assuming that it would be a proof that the thing "works", as advertised.  That was exactly the very first test that I did with my very first PP1050. So, the persons knew what he intended to test, he tested it and he get results. Why are you trying to argue with that person? If you have no objectives in your test and no power devises that would make difference?

Frankly your obsession with being frightened by APS is a bit annoying. I do not think that anybody is trying to solicit you on APS but from the same perspective I do not think anybody pull your for your tang to express an opinion regarding the subject that you are not involved into. I mean you can express any opinion you with but does you think it become subject-less and paranoiac?

On the practical side I know that there were some folks who reported ground problem and I have some emails from the people who reported that the newest APS production do not have those problems anymore. It looks like ASP did find the bug and addressed it. So, I would like to know if the APS has rectified the cases that were on standby for a while.

Anyhow, I know that it cost nothing to make a post but I would like to call people to have at least own reason to make those posts….
