PS Audio PowerPlant P20 better than pure direct AC I get during the night?

So Elizabeth your experience says the variations provided by an AC accessory (from cable to regenerator) are impredictable. A technically advanced component designed to improve AC may also slightly change the tonal balance and that could be welcome or unpleasant to my ear possibly at a higher level compared to the "base improvement" it will certainly give.

I really need to audition the P20 in my system before buying.

Thank you for your help!

I used an AC regenerator once, (PurePower,) and it always had warm up changes, because it really is an amp set to 60 Hz inside.

Switched to a Chang LIghtSpeed line filter. and found that much superior. At $1300, not thousands.

Dead silent, 3D, warm sound.

Bought another for my home theater, and the HD picture vastly improved!

I never had a good outcome with PS Audio...always closed in the sound

It depends on how bad your incoming power is- I wish there was a cheap VAC measuring meter so you could see incoming AC with distortion. 

I have P12 and my incoming AC was 117VAC with 7% THD as indicated on P12- and using this made a big difference- I could sense openness in sonics. This was 6 months ago. 

Now I have a dedicated line into my room (cheap investment) and  I do not find much of difference in using my P12 anymore. When I checked my incoming is 118-119 VAC with 1% distortion - so not sure there is any value-add. I preferred RSA Dmitri to P12 and P12 will be on sale soon.
