APS Pure Power A/C Regenerators


Over the years I have tried a few power conditioners and always felt that they stripped the music of its "body," leaving me with a non-involving, non-musical, thin sound.

Because of this, I have only gone as far as a dedicated panel to dedicated circuits, with some above standard electrical hardware. ...and have been pleased with this results.

I recently had a conversation with a fellow audiophile, who also happens to be an engineer, who recommended that I look into the Pure Power line of A/C Regenerators.

He has tried quite a number of tweaks to his electrical supply over the years and could not say enough great things about Pure Power, to the point that he strongly felt that using this (specifically referring to the model 2000) in any standard outlet in the home, would outperform the improvments of dedicated circuits or any other electrical tweaking.

I am considering a project in my home that would move my listening room to a new space. Before I do this and before I bring in an electrician for all of the custom works, I am looking to hear from any folks that own or have owned a Pure Power regenerator.

Please share your experiences, both good or bad. Also, please comment on other A/C conditioners or custom/dedicated circuit topologies that you have compared this to.

Any experiences that you can share regarding APS Pure Power regenerators is appreciated.

Lastly, does anyone know if there is a performance difference between the different models, or do they only differ by their output capacities?

Thanks!

I have the PurePower 700 and it is a key component in my system. Once you try it you will never want to let it go, I have even run pretty large amps (ML 433) and my TV and sources without overrunning it's output. Performance wise they are all similar I believe they just differ in output.
I found the same thing and everything I used it on improved, even amplifiers mad a difference as the PP units use the battery backup to also handle peak demands so it can usually output a lot more than the actual line voltage/amperage. Amazingly when I had a Mark Levinson 433, and AV Preamp, sources etc AND my 70" Sony XBR RPTV on it even at high volumes my 700 unit read that I was only using low 80% of it's ability!!!

BTW They make a huge difference in video displays as well!!! I didn't believe how much good power improved the video!
They do show up on the used market but not very frequently. I suspect most people are pretty impressed with them and don't sell them unless they have a reason (upsizing or downsizing)
