Are we all in agreement that up to now "the best power" in terms of sound has been the best wall power?Maybe this has something to do with the fact that on a good day there is a LOT of current pushing the "best" wall power into a system tha...

Here are some info about power conditioners:https://www.gearslutz.com/board/gear-shoot-outs-sound-file-comparisons-audio-tests/484756-without-power-conditioner-voltage-regulator.htmlhttps://www.gearslutz.com/board/so-much-gear-so-little-time/859885-p...

Yes, Romy, it is certainly an info-mercial first, with all the usual flash/buzz "facts" in play. Also, although all "studios" I know of are "balanced", many of the "hot-rod" studio guys also use all sorts of "power conditioneers". For one thing, it...

I had PS300 and founded only 1 place it did the job - for my then Valhalled Linn LP12. At all other places it worsened sound. Eventually after 4 years it went south.I tried no-label balanced isolated trans-didn't work for me but of course it doesn't ...
|
Was it my old Audible Illusions pre-amp that kept lower voltage on all the time? But I was worried about constant 20% power causing constant 20% plate dissipation on my expensive NOS tubes, so I tested it and wound up unplugging it most of the time....

...of wines and power conditioners and Bruckner and cigars. That said, I don't do cigars; I really, really do do Bruckner; power conditioners vary in their effect from place to place, day to day, and hour to hour (not only that, but most of them need...
|
Yeah, the power cord was nothing special. The Shunyata cord PLUS the Hyrdra conditioner represent the single best upgrades to my system aside from John's mods. I was skeptical about power cords and conditioners, but I'm a bit of a fanatic a...
|
Of course, some of the noise heard is due to system gain, including loops. But it seems like some of my electricity problems are a sort of "clogging up" of the system, like a hotrod running on cheap gasoline. Basically, the system is "sluggish", an...
|
You are correct, I neither know nor expect, really, that the person from whom I bought the 6N6Ps tested them in a way that will make any difference to me, and I certainly did not buy them with any particular sense that this was the case.&nb...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]... I will showily dump in this thread some observations of mine about APS PurePower regenerator... [/quote]If you, I, they, we, whoever… consider APS PurePower as just a power treating or regenerating devise then I feel th...

It certainly seems that once sinusoidal shape gets within a certain spec range its differential effect becomes negligible. This doesn't necessarily mean that more drastic deviation of sinusoidal shape would be inaudible.The only other factors I can...

I have a 10KVA Isolation transformer that feeds on two separate 8 ga cables running direct from the house meters into an breaker into de transformer. This breaker is the one I use to turn my system on and off. The Isolation transformer recieves two ...

[quote user="slack key"]I know that speaker position and room acoustics are important. I use a laser to align the speakers, room treatments, hallographs, crystals, ionizer, Z-sleeves, bybee filters, etc. I also have power conditioners, installed de...
|
Romy, it is of course your forum, and it has rarely been productive to differ with you. I will try to glean what I can that is helpful from your remarks directed to me and otherwise keep my observations as "objective" as possible. For the record, I...
|
An electrical engineer who works for the power company (and who has no interest in hi-fi) was incredulous that I did not know that all "conditioners" and "regenerators" are aimed at a specific type of load, at least in terms of their ability to do wh...
|
What one NEVER hears from these guys is why and how they evolve their sound over time, and this is because the particular product or products is/are the focus, rather than any organic, felt sense of sound that is merely facilitated - or not - by the ...
|
[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Also, in DHT the electrons flow dispatched not from uniformed nice cathode but from many 3-D wires that make the arriving to anode not… time-aligned and more unsystematic. BTW, this is one of the reasons why many DHT people...

[quote user="RF at Ona"]Romy and friends,Reading about the sensitivity of your system to electrical power supply problems reminds me of the days when I used to make my own equipment as much for the learning experience as for the final result.One of t...
|
I can only offer a simple solution to this problem.Decide on which row you wish to place digital services. I would also include anything that has a switched mode power supply because of the Y capacitor thing. Assume Row 1 will be used for digital s...

I am sorry I do not want to pollute the PP2000 thread with battery options.Right now I am in the process of testing a lot of different comercial amps to see what I will stay with, or which route I will be taking with my system in the near future for ...
|
[quote user="Romy the Cat"]One of the greatest area where a lot of done but with zero success is the power treatment – the electricity still is the main bitch of audio in my world. Well, I should not say that what among what is done everything has ze...
|
Above, talking about APS-like regenerators, I was skeptically referred to the battery back up functionality in the APS PurePower, calling it bogus and completely unnecessary. It was very funny to read at the APS site as the APS guys promote their uni...

The failure Herman had was probably on the input side - not the output. You will notice 2 things. 1. The system operated normally for 6 months, so it is unlikely an overload issue.2. The PurePower did its job of protecting the audio equipment (self s...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]...
So, my point is that I do not care if one or other company trade their regenerators and that I might get the same or near the same cheaper somewhere else. There is many Class AB power regenerators that are being use in...
|
Bill, when you were at my place I use two PP2000 running together as at that time I did not discover the effect. I was running my MF at -2dB and my tweeter at -1.5dB. As now I use one unit and I return back my MF and HF channels to the level as they ...
|
Let's see "series crossovers"... hmmm, very interesting. Something to look into? Where can I get more information? Should I contact an audio tech to design one? Can I send the current crossovers somewhere for evaluation or do I also have send the...
|
I did some research about non audio marketed AC regenerators. The terminology used commercially is either "online" or "double conversion" UPS. They all have expandable battery packs. There is another topology called "line interactive" which is equiva...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do not like the idea of batteries for anything. It is kind of ridicules to use batteries. Yes, in some cases there is some improvement on low voltage electronics but it is ONLY because the power lines are badly sounding t...
