Nomenclature
fiogf49gjkf0d
Just a suggestion. "Greenish pussy" sounds like a disease. You might try something like "enviro bunny". 

You didn't specify where all the solar devices are being hooked up? Are they hooked up to a junction After the drop to your house or Before the drop to your house?

Also these kind of solar panel companies predate the current administration therefore I doubt they are totally dependent on political situations. Anyway you are in Mass. so I would assume the state would continue to support them. What you are describing though should work without subsidy as long as the power company has to buy your excess electricity. Many states have the same provisions to make power companies buy excess electricity.

Synergistic Research’s “filtering” platform.
fiogf49gjkf0d

I do not know what they do and the story is a bit murky but still it would be interesting to learn what they are dealing with as it might be very much related to the problem I am familiar with.

http://www.synergisticresearch.com/featured/new-tranquility-base/

if the concept and the solution that the Synergistic Research uses works then it not suppose to be a “platform” for an indivisible devise but rather a global solution for while installation.

Liquid filled fuse.
fiogf49gjkf0d

John Hoffman published an article in positive-feedback about the Liquid filled fuse:

http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue61/audiomagic_nano.htm

… from audio-magic company.

http://www.audio-magic.com/Prod-NanoFuse.html

The whole story a bit controversial of cause but since my old POD cable I’m kind of a bit sucker for using liquid with electric conductors…

I did look at the audio-magic site. The make some power conditioning devises but I am a bit confused by their overly-liberated use of the word liquid. I was expected to see some kind of new power treating devise submerged in liquid but instead they use “Liquid Air” whatever it means. Would it be the same as manufacture who use “nickel-core transformers” made from iron? Anyhow, I juts would like to pay attention to the company.

There is one more thing that I would like to pay attention.  The company and the users claim improvement while using the fuse after 60 hours of break-in. That is good but I have a question to ask: how methodologically, theoretically or even hypothetically they were able to lock the normal change in greed electricity that took place over 60 hours if they do not use any means of power quality stabilization?

Rgs,

Synergistic Research Powercells
fiogf49gjkf0d

Synergistic Research looks like has a product that deal with electricity:

http://www.synergisticresearch.com/category/tesla-power-products/

http://www.synergisticresearch.com/tesla-power-products/the-powercell-story/

http://www.synergisticresearch.com/featured/galileo-series/

To grant to the product Tesla name is a bit… stupid but I guess this is how the industry feel.

I read the description of the theory and the way how they plug the Big Bang and the String Theory into the game. Sounds incredibly brainless, the explanation sounds brainless, not the way how the Powercell units sound themselves. I have no idea how the Powercell units sound and the reason I post it is to ask if anyone dealt with them.

Whatever subatomic, String of voodoo concept they use it for sure does not deal with fix the waveform clipping, this is what PP does but I wonder if it might be beneficial to try these  Powercell AFTER PurePower and to see if Synergistic Research “quantum intelligence” will be able to handle, or perhaps even to capitalize, the sound that PP does. My former experience with people who claim any dealing with quantum was very non-satisfactory but I did not deal with Synergistic Research’s power devises.

Rgs,

Yes, thanks, ricksmet, it does sound “updated”.

I am not sure that the better box shall have as much attention as it was. The old “deep” was uncomfortable but it was fine if you flip the box over, or use it on side. From the picture is looks like that they have some charger or at least some part of it in the battery chassis. That is very good but I do not know if it is the whole AC/AC down-converter and charger or only the last filtering part. It looks like the parts too small to be the full converter and rectifier but who know…

For sure the true question is how it sounds. So far I did not see any comments about it neither from PP not from users. Also, it is very interesting how the new PP+ will maintain own operation and performance status while the quality of the incoming electricity change.
I think that in couple months the feedback will come through, as it go we just need to distinct the typical sophomoric excitement that many audio people have after they got a new audio toy from reasonable feedback. I would be particularly interested to hear a feedback from the people who use PP3000 and who upgraded it to PP+…

A year wasted
fiogf49gjkf0d
About this time last year I decided to stop using my PP2000. It has been sitting in my basement gathering dust all this time. I even put it up for sale last year but only received stupid offers for it, so decided to keep it.

I've been having problems with some humming transformers in a pair of gainclone amps I bought for my study/office system. The manufacturer sent me some new transformers to try and a couple of days ago I was all ready to get them soldered into place. But I hate soldering, and to delay the almost inevitable I thought I'd try the amps with the PP2000 and see if I could eliminate the humming with its anti-humming pot. Well, it worked. But what I really wasn't expecting was the sound to become far more 'musical'. It just started 'making sense' more. Music that had previously annoyed me now started sounding intriguing. I took the PP2000 out and the 'musicality' disappeared. But it back and it returned. I listened to music well into the night - something I've never done in my study/office before. Yesterday, I placed the PP2000 in my main system. Although the difference wasn't as marked as in my study/office system, it same effect was there for sure. Without it, the sound is a bit dull and boring. With it, there is some 'life' injected into the music - far more interesting.

So why do I now prefer the sound with the PP2000 as opposed to last year when I stopped using it? I think it's because last year I never plugged all the components into it. Playing around with various configurations these last couple of day, what I've learned is that everything has to be plugged into the PP... even the PC. Otherwise the sound is too bright, forward and edgy, my main criticisms. Last year this was easily fixed by running from battery, but now with all the components running off the PP, the PP sounds very similar running from AC or from battery.

I've just ordered a PP+3000 for my main system - the PP2000 will feed my study/office system. I'll report my thoughts on the difference between the two when the new one arrives in a few weeks' time.

Mani, it is hard to say why your results last year were unsatisfactory. I do not believe that people with properly operating PP would not acknowledge the difference and I do not believe that any sane person who even once heard playback running from PP would image do not use PP. The unsatisfactory that you had I attributed to the presumption that you unit was broken. Whatever it was you unit was 220V and I do not know if the 220V unit are the same as 120V units. They shall not be but I do not trust to anything that I did not hear personally. It is hard to me to say why you suddenly fallen in love with PP. You claim that it was “everything plugged” syndrome but I was writing about it years back and I thought that it was what you were doing. Even if you did not then in my view the superbly positive contribution of PP was still very observable… Anyhow….

It is interesting that you went for PP+3000. I very much consider doing the same but I would like the PP+ to age a bit. As I understand PurePower made kind of new regenerator and I would like them to filter out the bugs that they might have in this first version. I do not say that they have any bags but it is what uselessly happens. Were you able to upgrade your PP2000 to PP3000+ or you just got another unit? If you have both of them then it would be very interesting to hear your comments about Sound of PP vs. PP+.

Well I can pretty much replicate the sound I was getting last year - simply have the DAC and power amps plugged into the PP and the PC plugged into the wall socket.  The sound becomes brighter, thinner and more edgy. This is eliminated immediately by switching to battery and taking the power cord out of the PP. This effect is consistent and repeatable - I tried many, many times to be sure. I suspect that some sort of ground loop is introduced via the USB cable linking the PC to the DAC when the PC is connected to the wall socket, but who knows.

I will have both a PP+3000 (for my main system) and a PP2000 (for my study/office system). Yes, I'll certainly compare the two a report back.

The fact of connecting everything to PP is valid but what you describe ALSO an indication (at least to me) that your system is not organized properly from perspective of grounding. If I do not plug everything to PP and live a few elements outside of PP then I will have “some” worsening of sound but it will not be nearly as dramatic as you described. From what you describe I conclude that you have ground loops regardless of the PPs and the PP juts highlights the problem.
 
I run single-ended playback, it means no symmetric interconnect and negative lead of the interconnects is ground. All my power using playback (21 elements) has ONLY ONE connection to ground, from the chasses of my preamp. There is absolutely no explicit path from individual components to ground, only via interconnects to programs and then to ground in a single location. So, if I unplug any single element from PP and plug it to wall (via ground lifter only) then I will have “some” brighteners, thinner sound and more edgy result but it will be VERY minor… That what you had to do from very beginning and then you would not be “wasted a year”.

Daisy chaining balanced transformer -> PP2000

This may well be the case. I can't even remember the exact components I was using last year (a lot has changed in my system since then) but I know what I have now: PC -> DAC (via async USB) -> amps (via balanced XLR). The respective designers of the DAC and amps assure me that the signal ground is not connected to the protective earth - only the chassis of the component is. But maybe the USB ground is connected to the PE inside the PC. I don't know. But I do know that what I'm hearing is repeatable.

Incidentally, I've just tried powering the system from a few different configurations: direct from the wall socket; from the PP2000 connected to wall socket; from the PP2000 connected to a dedicated ring (with 5KVA balanced transformer and grounding rod). My order of preference is:

1) PP2000 connected to dedicated ring (with 5KVA balanced transformer and grounding rod). Very textured sound. Harmonically rich. No hint of sibilance. Very, very similar to PP2000 running from battery.

2) PP2000 connected to wall socket. No sibilance. A bit dull and flat.

3) Direct from wall socket. Easily the brightest and shiniest. Very dynamic. An immediacy that is initially appealing but that becomes a bit fatiguing with time. A bit of sibilance coming through.

I suspect the balanced transformer and grounding rod are helping to clean up the grunge that the PP2000 is inevitably putting back into the mains.

Sometimes I Feel Like a Dither-less Child
fiogf49gjkf0d
This type of "re-constructor" appeals to the side of me that still wants the "perfect sine wave", which most of the "manufacturers" still insist is [the key to] their units' "success".  That the unit in question does it with a "conventional" A/B amp should mean less toxic blow-back than switching systems, given that the sine wave generator is also (somehow) some sort of innocuous "analog" counter.  HOWEVER, I cannot dismiss my strong suspicions that the actual "success" of the PP units depends at least as much on "smoothing effects", perhaps from the very toxic switching that the subject unit ostensibly "does without".

It is "interesting" that the subject unit and its ilk's A/B amps do not function like the older (HEAVY) PS units.  The former (subject) use their A/B amps only to "correct" the line AC, whereas the latter (older PS) have been notoriously current limited in practice because they actually use their A/B amps to generate the "fresh AC".

Meanwhile, my own ante has been upped considerably, now that I'm using 3 amps said to be "capable" of 150A drive each (AC willing and ready...).  Nice load for the typical "regenerator"...

Ironic name of the review but it is what it is. Frank Alles posted a review about PS Audio P3 unit. It is not very informative but generally more or less sensible.

http://www.stereotimes.com/acc072312.shtml

I did not hear the new generation of PS Audio regenerator and I can’t relate to Frank findings.

Isn't this NUTS?
fiogf49gjkf0d
I mean we can take real live analog music, convert it 100% to digital and get incredible playback if we pay attention to details but we can't take an ANALog 60/50Hz AC signal and clean it up enough for MEGA expensive equipment.
Electricity IS a problem, I just can't see why we have to jump through so many hoops to straighten that out. Why should the CONSUMER have to mess with this?
With what manufacturers charge for decent equipment these days, power regeneration built into the power supply AND optimized for the unit should be part of the package! How many of us use batteries on everything except for the power amps and turntables?

It looks like PurePower is selling big their new Canadian-made unit. I wonder if any rumors about the performance of new units compare to the older units. I did not spend any time to look online but I wonder if anybody manages to get it and might report the results.

It looks like the new PP unit can output configurable 115V, 120V, 127V or 130V. That is very nice as it allow to bulk setting the pate currents in none-regulated DSETS. It also has frequency converter – kind if worthless thing is you can’t double frequency. The bypass mode is a phenomenal feature but it looks like the display does not reflect the bypass mode, of they use a wrong image in the manual.  The 4 stage load- meter and battery-meter is too not-precise in my view. The former was with1% precession and it would be fine if it show some kind of accurate value. To have 25% precision with the same questionably accuracy makes the load- meter and battery-meter kind of irrelevant.

Smaller transformers? Higher switching frequencies?

Mani, you have seemed just a little above lukewarm about your old unit.  Will you be able to compare the new unit to the old one, or are you bailing out of the old one?  If the latter, why?
