Anyone else regenerating A/C?

I recently bought the Power Plant Premier after researching and waiting over a year before pulling the trigger. Nothing really appealed to me before. I favored AC regeneration on purely theoretical grounds but was concerned about its limitations i.e. power handling and dynamic constriction among others. It came down to the Exact Power and PS Audio. The PPP addressed all the issues I was concerned about. The advantages over the EP were unrestricted power delivery(very large bus bars), component to component isolation, real surge and overvoltage protection. You are right, AC regeneration is easily audible, even compared to the passive Tice unit I've had for 10 years that it replaced. Component isolation is also audible and important since I have an amp with a switch mode power supply and a CD player that throw alot of crap into the electrical line. I can't comment on PS audio reliability since this is the first product I've purchased from them but I am very impressed with the fit and finish and overall quality of the Premier. BTW, the PPP produces very little heat. Sorry for the long rant.

The P3 would appear to offer some advantages over the EP in terms of including balanced AC and (so they claim) inter-component isolation without having to add a second unit like with the EP. (And then there's MultiWave.) This makes it cheaper, but does it sound as good, or better? It'd be interesting to hear from anybody who's heard the two companies' latest solutions go at it head to head.

FWIW I have the low end APS product and have to say that I am very impressed for the money. Seems to do it all well. I do however run my Pass directly to the wall. And yes, I feed the APS from my best power cord, a conclusion that the cord manufacturer seconded.

Great discussion guys but I am still unclear about the difference between the two Exact Power products the EP and the SP - enlightement please?

Ckorody, the EP is a power regenerator, the SP is a balanced power unit. All is made clear on their website:

.

SP units use balanced power transformers and are passive devices, intended mainly to follow the active EP. Companies including the aptly named BPT, API Power Wedge, Equi=Tech and others also offer component units based around balanced power transformers. But to get balanced AC to a power amp, you'd need to go with one of the larger BPT or E=T type units (or use a suitable transformer that's not packaged as a rack component), EP and API don't offer ones that large.
