PS Audio P500 vs VPI SDS

Will plugging your TT's motor into the P500 yield the same benefit as plugging it into the VPI SDS? The P500 has a "Multi Wave" feature that generates pure 60HZ AC.

Once again I realize I am wrong. I was on PS Audios site thinking of upgradeing my p600 from mutiwave I to multiwave II. Noticing that the p500 has the multiwave II and tubewave. With multiwave II in sine wave 50hz to 120hz it can be adjusted in 1 hz increments, giving you more control in a AC motor. Multiwave I is in 5 hz increments in sine wave 50hz to 120hz. There you go , keep in mind every thing else pluged into will be at the same setting. David

I recently needed service on my PS500 and spoke with an engineer with the Company. He indicated that the Sine setting would be best for my TT and would provide a great source for my tube pre, tube pre-pre and CD player. My system operates at about 50% and the noise floor has dropped. The Mitchell Orbe is also dead on 33 1/3. By the way, they did the repairs free and paid the transportation costs even though I'm not the original owner.
