Symptoms of UN-CLEAN power


When talking about CLEAN POWER, what SYMPTOMS or effects are caused by DIRTY or UN-CLEAN power?

Power transformer hum, very faint static noise at 0 volume, fuses blow often, and possibly other malfunctions.

A world-class power conditioner can take the strain off internal power transformers in audio equipment. The end result is better power factor, optimal performance, and longer lifespan without intermittent failures.

Check out my profile. What I'm using works.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My take on symptoms of 'Dirty power'.

 

RFI - Harsh sound, Grey background, Sounds that blur with each other. 

EMI - Weak & untight Bass, Small stereo image. Missing the Boogie Factor

Leakage currents - short decay of sounds, obstructed sound (can be minimized with correct phasing of equipment)

Too much shielding - splash sounds on cymbals, congested & choked sound

DC - Missing Oomph, Tiny bit of distortion on the transients. General lack of naturalness. Bassdrum that sounds like 'Bonk' instead of 'Bup'

General observation: More capacitance = less high, More induction = less bass.

 

Love to hear other peoples descriptions.
