Post Subject: Pure Power 3000+ has arrived!Posted by drdna on: 7/20/2014

Now fully five years after the original PP2000 was in my system, then subsequently stopped working and was sent back for repairs to the manufacturer. An unfortunate series of events involving the Chinese subcontractor resulted in the company contracting severely, and my original unit was lost. Numerous excuses were made, but eventually the APS company made it back on their feet.

Almost beyond belief after such a long time, and thanks to those here who encouraged APS to "do the right thing" and send me a replacement unit; finally it has arrived! I waited to report on this until the unit was actually physically in my possession...

But now it is here. APS sent me a PP3000 Plus unit including the Power Pack and Furutech FPX-R receptacles. After plugging it in and letting it settle for a few days, I have been listening to it this weekend. The sound is as I remember it. It is frankly impossible to make a direct comparison to the PP2000 as it has been such a long time, but all my original remarks apply. The only thing missing is the buzzing hum which plagued my first unit. This unit is absolutely silent in operation, leading perhaps credence to my original suspicion that the original buzzing was due to a manufacturing defect.

Now it is totally silent and the Sound is coming through gloriously again. More commentary to come in a while...

Worth the wait.
