Is PS Audio the only game in town for Power Regenerators?

nmmusicman,

Thanks for the recommendation. Have you used this front end AC Regenerator product yourself?  How would this be applied to an audio system , it  only has one outlet?

Pro Power is another company. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/is-ps-audio-the-only-game-in-town-for-power-regenerators-2 No price provided, but likely as high as PS Audio. They use a battery, so could be a reworked commercial UPS modified to be quite. They do not provide THD output specs, but do have a 17dBa noise spec.

I did find a UK product that was quiet made for audio application, but not sure if they made a 110V version. https://www.powerinspired.com/product-range/specialist-ups-systems/vfi1000qs-silent-ups-system/

With respect to low cost solutions, the APC and Cyber Power UPS units at 55 dBa @ 1 meter is too loud for my room, Liebert UPS are 46dBa again too loud. Would have to have at panel or another room for my audio application. Those unit provide specs of <2% THD. Although per @astolfor measure better .2%. THD with 1.9% THD at panel. I have not measured my THD at panel, but doubt it is >2%. So from my research PS Audio is the only practical game in town.

No experience with re-generators.  Just sharing experience, that if a much lower system noise floor is what you seek, the Decware conditioner delivers in spades.  Shockingly good at subtraction without dulling dynamics.  What one did not perceive as there, is removed for a blacker background.

I purchased one for a friend and without solicitation he independently expressed the same with his system.  It replaced a Furman Elite 15.

Best of luck and success on your journey.

Celtic66,

Thanks for your input. I have seen the Decware’s line conditioner before on their web page. I assume you are talking about Zen Line Conditioner ( ZLC)? Looks very interesting.

georgeab, Thanks for your input on Pro Power and the APC and Cyber Power UPS.
