Review: EXACTPOWER EP15A Tweak


Category: Accessories

I just purchased the new ExactPower EP-15A AC Line Voltage Regulator from a Audiogon Seller " Chichiuno ".

The first thing I noticed when taking it out of the box was the build quality, all aluminum, and heavy. I pluged the EP-15A into the wall and all of my gear into the eight AC outlets on the back of the unit.

I turned the EP-15A on and played Lee Ritenour Rit's House, and I was amazed! It was as if I added another 50 watts to my Power Amp! The volume level had to be turned down from the normal listening position. The sound was smooth and rich. The sonic benefits from this unit are cleaner sound with no hum, and power, power, power! My Velodyne pumped out deeper bass, the Monitor Audio tweeters produced crisp high frequencies without sounding too bright, and the mid-range truly opened up with finer detail.

The EP-15A made a big difference in the sound of my system, but that's not all, the picture quality of my TV increased dramatically with brighter colors and sharper picture.

If you are looking for a cost effective way to give your system the boost it needs, try the ExactPower EP-15A. "You can't go wrong with ExactPower on".

Thank you Steve.

I have used EP-15A and SP-15 for 5 years now. Nothing goes wrong so far.

Can you explain in details how to recap the 2x100uf to 1000uf you said? Is there enough room to put the big 1000uf caps?

Thank you
Sam
Steve, I'd like to get more info about this upgrade as my caps just went. How can I get a hold of you?
Steve, I am another person who is experiencing a loud "buzzing" from my Exactpower EP15A. I see that you haven't replied back to other members' posts. I'll try to PM you.
My EP15A is starting to make some funky noises, too. Has anyone had their EP15A recapped? Can you snap some pictures of the insides so that I can do a visual comparison? (I've also sent a note to stevehogan, but no reply so far...)

thanks!
His phone number is available on his website. I've found he's responsive that way. If you can't find it PM me and i'll provide.
