Power Filtering vs Power Regeneration?


About two years ago....I began experiencing the dreaded power supply vagaries which seem to attack my system every two or three weeks...πŸ‘€πŸ˜±β“
The analogue soundstage collapses with a loss of transparency and bass whilst the high frequencies become grating, strident and brittle.
This makes the experience of listening to records, worse than the truly bad days of CD playback...and it can last two or three days before gradually settling down...πŸ˜₯
So frustrating had this new phenomenon become that I bought a Shindo Mr T transformer based power filter into which I plug both turntables and the Halcro DM10 phonostage/preamp....πŸ‘€
Unfortunately it hasn't solved the problem...πŸ˜₯
I'm wondering if a power regeneration circuit like the PS Audio P3 would be more likely to succeed....❓

Tony, Can you say what "tube gear" would be more affected by humidity than SS gear? I don't think so.

The symptoms Henry describes do not at all sound like anything that can be caused by poor grounding. RF, maybe. Henry, what did your PS Audio do when the wall voltage varied up and down? Did you notice any change in sound quality? If it happens again, you may try momentarily bypassing your PS Audio, in order to determine whether AC voltage instability might in fact be causative. If you are close to a power station, there may be very high voltage lines somewhere near your house; those can certainly radiate RF garbage.
RFI is what I was thinking about when asking about the grounding. Poor grounding could allow RFI to muddy things up. Also, I was recalling that in the 80s a buddy of mine had some old (50s vintage) tube mono amps. I remembering him remarking that humidity affected the sound. Now that I am thinking about it, he also had Quad Electrostats. So that might have been why humidity mattered. On a not so related note: I notice that my system sounds better when the air temp in the living room is around 68F. In the summer when temps are in the mid 70s in the living room the sound is not quite as perfect or astonishing.
One last thing- I have no idea which way the records spin. I listen to records in the dark.
Ok, one more last thing: wide variations in line voltage is a big issue, Have you complained to the power company about it? I'm sure that the wide variation in voltage will impact life/durability of electronics, motors and lights.
I don't know if a 10 Volt swing in 250V is a big swing or not...❓👀
Anybody....anybody....😯❓
The PS Audio seemed to do its job and sound quality didn't suffer...
Did I also mention that it has cleaned up the 'noise' in the supply....not that I was aware there WAS any previously....but the removal of it is impressive...😄👍
That's a 4% total variation in voltage. I'd say its a big deal. I would expect less than 1%. Now, that's considering that the load in your house is constant. If something in your house is turning on/off when you see those voltage swings then it might be a problem with your house wiring and/or you are too far away from the transformer. I see 125VAC at my house. It stays within a few tenths until a load comes on. If both heat pumps are running and other things are on then I see it drop to 122.5VAC. When I power up my monster amp it gets as low as 121.5VAC but never over 123VAC while the amp is on. 120.5VAC is the lowest I think I have ever seen and that was summertime with the stereo on and A/C running. I have a dedicated circuit for it. It pulls about 5 amps idle current and the preamp/CD player, tt pull about another 1 amp. The power transformer sits at the street at the corner of my front yard.
