Review: EXACTPOWER EP15A Tweak
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".

Saw your msg albeit late. I will look for Steve's info but it's been many years. I have both EP15 and SP15 and had issues with EP15 back in 2009 that were repaired through warranty. Caps, boards. There was an post from someone that said you shouldn't plug the sp15 into the ep15 contrary to the manufacturers direct instructions. I have run mine both ways without out issues.
most recently my GFI socket failed and can't reset it so assuming something wore out. Here are some names of people involved with the company:
Greg Scott engineer at Exact Power Michael Davis Helped with my VMA but unknown if he is still with the company. we should start a user group! I'm wondering how many are still in operation. one reason for mine lasting as long may be due to the fact I don't turn my system off. As an EE by trade, electronics are stressed by power on power off. my email id is paolor@earthlink.net, 408 930-4805 |
