[quote user="OracleAV"]I really didn't get a chance to really audition the unit for its effect on sound quality.[/quote]As we already know well that PurePower affects the electricity even when not directly plugged into the audio system, it is reasona...

[quote user="Paul S"]I hope they make a 10 cent fix that works across the board! They'll sell dozens of them![/quote]xD Yes Paul, that will make a very successful company!With electricity, it's like the water, in my view. Untreated electricity is li...

Paul,As always, it is a big question if there is benefit in the home audio application. If you or anyone has used the Bybee devices, I'd be interested in hearing your results.Adrian...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]This is why I am a bit skeptical
and with big worry hear news that PP did some improvement. [/quote]Since (at least comparing PP2000 and PP3000+) PurePower is still effective, the one thing we can say is that PurePower has...

It is always entertaining to see a story about PurePower. I say simply that Richard should make good on the refund as quickly as possible.I am always surprised to hear about customers who are surprised about this sort of thing happening with audiophi...

Romy,I agree with the very nice summary you have made of the situation. You remember that I struggled for a couple years to get PurePower to return my PP2000 which had gone for repairs, but ultimately they replaced it with a PP3000+. I just have to ...

While I and a few others have had some delays with PurePower, they came through in the end with an outstanding product. I have grave suspicions about a post complaining about PurePower and simultaneously promoting a link to the "ProPower" company, wh...

I have been living very happily with the PP3000 in my living room for a while now, and have had no problems with the new updated version that I finally received after a long effort with the company. Unlike the original unit with the odd internal grou...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Well, the StormTank is currently is being sold for $30K.[/quote]Oh well, I can forget about buying one to try it out...[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The PurePower has a bank of caps that shunt the battery. Intellectually, it

[quote user="N-set"]Do you have any data comparing same cross-section stranded and solid-core impedances vs. freq?I have to my disposal stranded 16mm2 or solid-core 6mm2 run to the ground. [/quote]At one time I experimented quite a bit with different...

|
I think this is all fine, but since you are building it all, why not make it so that you have the flexibility to experiment with different configurations to see what works best in your system? I think it's fine to have a theory about clustere...

|
The ground simultaneously serves as the source of all electrons entering the system and a common voltage level that establishes a baseline for the system. Thus, the ground should be simultaneously as large a homogenous metal source as possible while ...

Ha! Criminals is going a bit too far, unless you want to call all the audiophile companies criminals. I am not saying that is not the case, but the behavior of PurePower is not different from many other audiophile companies or many other similar busi...

As you pointed out, the Chinese website looks to be a link to the Chinese company contracted originally by PurePower to build their units, who then tried to sell the units on their own, ignoring the patent. I'm not sure how long since the website was...

So, the "Contact Us" link for ProPower leads to:Inquiries regarding the above Limited Warranty may be sent to the following address:
ProPower, 4F, No.248, Sec.3, Pei-Shan Rd, Shen-Keng Dist. New Taipei City, Taiwan. So, is this the Chinese company t...

I think these are also available in the USA....http://www.ppowerus.com/audio/distributors/Adrian...

Well, I would just say that it is clear that the company cannot keep up with the demand. They prioritize certain orders to fulfill that will be most important to increase their business, in their opinion, such as reviewers and retailers. It's underst...

[quote user="PurePower"]If you needed a PurePower+ hv 230 volt unit, there were some hiccups this spring ... all current back orders are scheduled for delivery before the end of August, so no one, even in Iran, need go without.[/quote]That sounds pro...

[quote user="steverino"]I am sure you are happy you eventually after years got a Purepower unit after they took yours and "misplaced" it. But if it wasn't for the constant harping on this sorry treatment by you, me and others in these threads who kno...

I waited for years to get my PP3000, but they DID finally come through and deliver the product. It was worth the wait in terms of the sound quality improvement. they are a very tiny company, it seems with limited cash flow. This is typical of the hig...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]the “sound” of these oscillators/inverters is something
that describes the sound of electricity. Tesla for sure would make great batteries
but I do not think that they would case to make oscillators “good for sound”.[/quo...

With the rapidly increasing technology driven by the electric car industry, lithium cell battery prices have come down. Tesla is now offering battery units for home use that can provide continuous AC power from an isolated battery source for as littl...

Is it just an excuse to sell your old equipment? I think as the community of music and audio grows smaller, there is often a revival of high quality audio, so there is a great deal of variability. It may be next season that a new person with a passio...

This is an excellent point, in theory. Armen's description of the differences he heard are reminiscent of the general differences between Moving Coil and Moving Magnet designs, so this would not be too much of a surprise if the major differences in s...

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 contract...

It sounds like an intriguing concept. The description is a bit more fleshed out, but unfortunately, it sounds more like a incremental improvement, somewhat characteristic of the changes described by audiophiles any time a new component is introduced ...
|
|
[quote user="steverino"]It would basically require discarding the original unit and sending out a PP plus in return in many cases.[/quote]Wow, you really know how to twist the knife. I only WISH they would make good on their promise to send me a new ...
|
|
[quote user="steverino"]Again I would ask people who are reporting problems to state whether they have the original PP or the Plus version made in the last few years. I assume Adrian had an original version with a hum problem which was incautiously r...

[quote user="Paul S"]Perhaps the PP in the circuit raised the residual current on the neutral and/or ground line(s)? ...shielding might still help with "hum" if the shielding was grounded in a way that dropped ground resistance/residual current o...
