Romy, did you run something like a 1000W light in addition to 1600W audio load on the PP+ 3000?

I did it as experiment, to hear how the PP would sound fully loaded. If you have 250W and 3000W unit them you might load let say 700-800W (an iron in half power) to hear how would it sound. It would be very interesting to try to use some kind reactive ballast load and try to dial in the reactive component to get the best sound. I did not experiment with it but I think if one has a lot of power to waste then it might be a very worthwhile direction. What would be very interesting to learn is when the electricity is absolute crap and PP does what it does but still can’t make it as it should be then would different loading pattern make any difference in the way how PP is fighting the bad electricity. Again, I did don’t make these experiments.
