[quote user="miab"] Romy, My Bidat being extremely sensitive to incoming electricity and now with Purepower in my mix I am getting to know my Bidat in a new light. I did think I had a grasp of what the Bidat could and couldn't do but feeding it throu...

I have offered myself up as a bad example time and again to illustrate the sorts of errors I make in the way of diagnostics and "remediation" of bad sound caused by bad electricity, including plates loads, just as you mention and also much ...

It looks like “scooter” is correct we did have a few days of fantastic electricity. Although we live in 3-4 towns ways from each other but it look like we have some common tendencies. Today is the first day when electricity turned bad. No I do not ha...

Petrasescu_Lucian,I would like do not accept the premise of you question and do not convert the problem with electricity into bumper sticker slogan. One of the biggest problems is that electricity found the ways to destroy sound very inventively ...

Here is what I have been thinking for a whale: how bad electricity impacts our long term judgment about the design decisions. Pretend we have a DSET amplifier and a speaker channel and we have a task to load the DSET’s plate properly. The proper load...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"]Romy, would you say that placette is especially sensitive to electricity to function at it's best(sensitive in relation to other equipment I mean)? My unit is 110v and I am in 220v world, so I am using a step-down trans...

A friend of mine asked my last night if I feel that PurePower’s Sound as good as a playback during those extremely seldom moments when electrify is good. It was a good question and I feel that it is worth to cover.
First off all I can not say about ...

Romy:I hope you and Amy are snug amid the storm and have good electricity (well, any electricity in a big blizzard is good electricity, I guess.) What music do you find appropriate to the weather this weekend? There should be something suitable in ...

[quote user="scooter"] Indeed, this is a reference to how important electricity might be. After last night, I almost feel as though my equipment is a much less important factor and takes a backseat to everything else. At this stage, I am thinking...

I can't remember the electricity EVER being any better, since I first got my system "good enough" for bad electricity to fuck it up.On the one hand, I am very encouraged by what I heard today, which was very enjoyable music pitched right wh...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Eli, there is another aspect of your problem. For sure I understand the frustration you had with your PP unit ordering and I do not blame you. If PP do not run continue production and make single unit per order then they ne...

It is not necessarily so. You do not complain about HF harshness due to electricity problem. You complain only about excessive higher frequencies. However, the excessive higher frequencies might come from zillion another reasons, including the topolo...

[quote user="Bill"] ….It does produce the cleanest electricvity I've heard in my system in over 30 years of trying… but I'd rather trade out the am than lose the sound I'm getting from the unit.[/quote]
This perception of the relationship betw...

[quote user="Vasyachkin"] ….the answer is properly designed components which are able to tolerate garbage power. [/quote] Might I ask you: what does it mean? Is it a some kind of mental exercise for you, like the example of the car's suspension? Do...

Adrian, I have alternately revelled in and anguished over this for some time now, the lynch pin for me being the electricity. Yes, I can generally hear any change I make to the system, but it is consistently the quality of the electricity that ...

[quote user="joaco"]hmmm sorry Romy for the lost of your pp2000 ....I would like to share one opinion from a technician that lives in Japan and lived in Chile . We were discussing the issues of electricity and he said "Lines in Chile are poor quialit...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]In my estimation our playbacks running from averages electricity I have here in Boston operates at 3-5% of abstract sonic quality scale. Use of the devises like PP2000 moves the “quality” to perhaps no more then 10-15%. How...

True enough, Robin, whether or not this factor was critical in this case. My extensive mad experiments with de-constructing and reconstructing paper coned drivers a few years back showed me it's not necessarilly helpful to get off the beaten path wit...

I decided eventually to leave this new PP3000+ with me. I quite like it. Probably I will sell one of my older regenerators; I have 2000 and 3000 for $2K and $2.5K, if somebody are interested than get in touch with me. Playing with the PP regenerators...

Hm, I made today a very interesting observation. When electricity is good then the plate currents that I indicated at the picture above work very nice (LF in the left, upperbass in the middle and the HF on the right). When the electricity is bad then...

I know that this post will be lost in the jungles of my site and I am OK with it. Those who follow my site regularly will have a chance to read it not to mention that for me a message is not what heard by other what I managed to express. My messa...

Would you have to play it back on a super electricity day to hear the difference?...

We have long spoken of the "electrical" event as something that is +/- "routed" by cables rather than being "contained" by the cables.Whatever the "source" or "nature" of the electricity, the gear does use it. Sometimes "conditions favor electricity...

It has been 1 year since I started working with the ML2s with all new tubes installed. The ML2s have been, by far, the biggest step I have taken in hi-fi in 45 years, and the "upgrades" I have done since the ML2s have necessarily been in a...

Romy, isn't this the first time you have tried the film caps for PS and the "ALL-NEW" "SUPER-SOFT" diode bridge? I would certainly go back to known quantities before I did or un-did anything serious. Not that I always follo...

[quote user="Lx_"]Those recent posts of yours are making me wonder whether my PP2000 unit is really faulty, as PurePower acknowledged on this very forum. After all, you are starting to recognize that PP is sensitive to incoming electricity in you...

[quote user="clarkjohnsen"]Since all audio folks know that the wall gives us highly variable power (voltage being just about the least important aspect), it occurs to me that a way to measure it that includes all the various parameters would be highl...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Do you personally recognize the sonic impact of bad electricity in your own playback?[/quote]no, not in the sense that i assume you mean it. instead i have my own beef with bad electricity, which i suspect is different fro...
