I would say that nothing has changed since last night. The sound still a bit harder then I would like it to have. This hardness is very interesting and in way different, it is not type of the hardness that I would discard as “bad” attribute of sound but it is also not something that I would do intentionally. I am still on a fence with the result and will see what happen later. What however is the most fascinating is why bass became so much greater. I would still call this new bass too hard bass but at the same time it is more extended and more articulate., I would say even a bit more over articulate then I would like it to have. If I have this sound I would load the output tube at my bass amp for 25%-50% harder.
Thinking why I got the change in bass I do not see answers. PurePower people insist that one of the reasons why their regenerator sound so good (when it works properly!) because it capacity to react to ultra short reaction of current. So, presumably with core capacitance the energy storage on buttery become able to give away more instant current. This in a way imposable as PP2000 is by topology not a able to give the instant current. Also, my system operates in class A with current draw is absolutely steady, furthermore the current is stabilized by a lot of input chokes. So, why the caps affected sound so much? I do not find any sensible explanations. |

Ok, there is nothing dramatic in there, the new days bring new success and failures for electricity battles.
There are some good things. Since I put more caps to one of my new fixed PP2000 I did not have bad electrify days. So, it is very possible that the tweak might work out effectively but a week is too short time to make any more or less generalized concussions…. Again if I had the bypass switch…. The absence of the bypass switch really drives my nits!
The dam UPS have officially lost one of my PP2000 that went to PurePower to repair. It was insured and PurePower promised to replace it next week but the units the UPS lost was my best sounding PP2000. Why they did not lost the upgraded unit that still sound very bad even after the repair? PurePower claims that all this following use will be sound the same and that “we are able to supply endless amount of identically sounding regenerators”. Well, I’ll believe what I see it, or on this case hear it. The sad past the on the unit that UPS lost I glue under the bottom the special mark to assures that this best sounding unit never will be confused. And the assholes have lost it! What a pity!!!
Another disappointment is that I return back to revised Avicenna assembly. The fact that return to Avicenna is not so bad but the fact the I burned it’s transistors is depressing. It is not big deal, I will replace them but me burning the Avicenna’s output stage because of my idiocy will not be the most glorious chapter of my autobiography. The goo part that I have setups my audio working spare in basement: very comfortable.
This week I will be sending out to PurePower the “upgraded” PP2000. Over that last eek I made two more attempts to use it and in both case it produced absolutely revolting compressed b/w sound. I have no idea why. The November Problem that the unit had was fixed by PurePower, and measurement confirmed it but it still has no sound. I have no idea what PurePower will be “fixing” if it has objectively proper operation. Mystery…
I really wish this saga with my 3 PurePower regenerators be over. I never thought that it will be for 6 month ceremony with unknown outcome. I do not do anything with my ULF channels until I have 3 properly performing PP2000s as I feel that driving everything from one PP2000 vs. 3 PP2000s would screw the ULF results.
