Power conditioning v re-generation; Shunyata v. PS


I recently decided to purchase a PS Power Plant - which as most know, takes AC power, converts it to DC, and then creates from that, new, clean AC power. It seemed logical to me that a new clean power source would be better than a re-conditioned power source.

However, now I am hearing that the Shunyata power re-conditioners (Hydra's) are better ? Is this the case? How can it be ? The PS Audio is producing new, perfectly clean power from a battery source.

QUESTION #2

If the PS unit is producing new power from its battery - why do they recommend that I upgrade the power cord from the wall to the unit ? It would seem to not matter what is going in since it is totally re-created as new power from the battery. Any explanations on this one ?

Thanks !

Assuming that the power cord from the wall to the unit is rated for the current requirements, there is no robust technical explanation for replacing the power cord. If the company recommending the power cord upgrade is also selling power cords, then the explanation is that it will benefit the seller if you buy a power cord from them.
