As I said before, in many if not all instances the provisions for “bad electricity” are deeply entrenched into the design of our playbacks. A few days back I took advantages of some new possibilities that PP2000 offered and made some changes in playb...

[quote user="PurePower"]We routinely operate our 230 volt models with two phase +/- 120 volt input.[/quote] That's interesting. I use a couple of 5KVA balanced transformers. I tried to feed my 240V PP2000 with one of them, but the output was non-symm...

Steve, get a little clue in what you are saying as your preaching on this subject of worshiping the butteries become a bit annoying. What battery solution I already use? Ruing playback from battery and the issuers with PurePower buttery related only ...

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 ...

Sorry Romy I can't help you - I've never heard of this before. But I'm certainly tempted to explore further now...(Incidentally, my new PP2000 will arrive tomorrow.)Mani....

Not saying the "pieces effect" "matters", but is it possible that this stems from using 1-phase power instead of the designed-for 3-phase? After all, the 1-phase is not merely "less power", but it also changes the way the power is delivered. Too ba...

Hi Emanuele,FWIW, I've been disappointed with my PP2000 (the 230V model). I love the sound then it's running from battery, but think it totally destroys the sound when running under 'regenerator' mode. And as Romy has pointed out, this is totally una...

Hello all I've had my pp2000 now for 3 years and could not be any happier with it in my system. Recently I've noted a 60 cycle sound faintly coming from my speakers. When i install a ground cheater or unplug the unit it goes away. Has any of you expe...

[quote user="manisandher"]Romy, this is very interesting indeed. I'm assuming that the sonic difference between these two files is in line with the sonic difference you hear between bad and good 'electricity' days when you're just listening to music,...

Paul,
You certainly have an attitude toward the subject and I have no idea why. The subject of this thread, or put in this way - the subject of my interest, is how to deal with electricity problem and how to provide a playback with stable (sou...

Nice to hear that it eventually produces less noise. At least it becomes clear now that it was far from being as silent as they were so quick to claim.Do you know if they plan something for previous buyers of PP2000 ?I would love to ask them myself b...

Upper range effect is amassing, though not much different then with other regenerators. With PS Audio’s Power Plant the compression at MF-HF is also reduced or eliminated and that ugly heavy dense pressure blanket got lifted. The Power Plant while do...

[quote user="oxric"] Romy:
You may in the meantime build your own battery pack to increase the playtime you get from batteries. When I last spoke to PurePower (I placed an order for a PP2000 in another life and then cancelled the order), I ask...

[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...

Using the PP2000 has been a very interesting experience. Immediately listening I am NOT struck that it is the most wonderful improvement ever, which I have said before is a GOOD sign. Usually the seductive sound changes are colorations that are enj...

Lucian,
If your system draws a steady 500W, do not use LC filtration and if you would like to buy 700 model then you might reconsider it and look at 1050 mode or 2000 model. The more load you have on this thing is the better result is, I perso...

[quote user="oxric"]….However, as I have said previously, my interest in Fane is strictly limited to this production run and nothing more sinister as you seem to insinuate. On the other hand, you had no problem being quoted on PurePower's site as a u...

OK, I agree – it might be not necessary as PP2000 does produce fine electricity in a convenient package. Furthermore it violates the rule that I try to follow in audio generally: define snick objective and ONLY then render audio methods.

By definition and code, a separate non-current carrying ground is required for all outlets. In every house I've lived in, the ground is a separate thick copper bar that goes deep into the ground (the earth outside the house) and that is the gro...

Yes, the HF do slowly return with PurePower 2000 where they shell be. It very slowly the PP2000 look like dials itself back to “neutrality”. I begin very leisurely to roll back my tweeter and the plate current on my MF channels.
