Who has tried one of the PS Audio Power Regenerators?
If the big boy units are not within the budget, then for sure try the new Stellar PP3. It can be used on all front end gear which is where they are most important. PS Audio builds and services all their gear in Boulder and are known for having a great customer service department. I do not think a system is running at its full capability without using one of their units. Try one.
PS: If anyone is concerned that i am working for PS, let me assure you I am not. I have a small menswear retail clothing store in Greensboro NC. www.thehubltd.com

Hi, I had an original Powerplant - and the capacitors recently went bad. To my complete astonishment, PS Audio would not service the unit because it was too old. (It was about 11 years old). I would seriously be concerned about buying their products because they are not committed to service - despite what you say. I have had many very old Levinson pieces - they service everything. 25 years old - no problem... |
I had a similar experience with one of their Phono preamps that was about 9 years old. Turned me off PSA forever.
@hifiman5 How do yu know that you are realizing improved perofrmance from a power conditioner every time you change it? By definition it doesnt add anything to your system, and once you lower the noise floor with the first, how are you sure that future editions are doing additional benefit? |
They did offer me an upgrade - offered 40% off of a new unit - but with a PP3 - what they essentially were saying - "we wont fix your old unit, but you can have our new $3,000 unit for $1,800. The experience was so bad with their poor attitude that I was not in the mood to send them $1,800 for a new unit. |
