Yep, guys, thanks, I hear what you saying and it is true - the possibilities of the power devises in commercial and industrial world are endless. Even among regulators there are dozens and dozens companies that DC-AC inverters. Some of them might be less inclined to fault or even better sound then APS, who knows…
The problem that I see is not the luck of opportunities but luck of a comfortable framework that would allow approach those regenerators. We do not need a “good power” in audio we need a properly sounding power. I am not necessarily know what is difference but nether those people who produce the power devises. Get for instance the PS Audio Power Plant – it is a perfect power sourse but with a lot of sonic problems… So, the advantage that I see in the Audio-centric power companies that practice the accommodation of different industrial solutions is that they (presumably) optimize the commercial product to best yield from audio perspective. It is obvious the APS device was started as some kind of UPS unit that APS folks are trying to adapt foe audio use. I am very fine with it and I do not mind to pay more if all dirty work of getting better sound out of the power devise would be done by the company in house and the final products would have a guaranteed default audio performance. This is how it shell be but it is unfortunately not how it is. What is the alternative: to chance zillion commercial products and to see which one would work out for audio? I do not think so. The companies like APS (and others) are sort of brokers between the army of UPS units and consumers who would like to employ the class D regenerators. I just wish the APS have more qualified engineers in stuff and more serious ability to evaluate sonic consequences of this products performance. But what makes the APS different from many other audio companies? The APS units erratically blow; the ExectPower units have 2kHz bandwidth(how stupid could it is) - I can go on and on.
As in anything else I see the fault in all of it the QA department of audio industry – the reviewing whores who embrace and sell anything letting the companies to produce anything. Pretend that any film as soon it made has default exuberant acceptance by media and nominated for 25 Academy Awards, 15 Oscars and so on….
