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 !

"The better the input, the lesser the dirty work the PPP has to do and the better the result. You can add on other tweaks to make it sounds better as well."

I don't get this either. It seems to me that the difference between power conditioners and AC regenerators would be akin to the difference between water purifiers and distilling water. In the first method I can understand the influence of the source, but not the second.

Since I can't have dedicated lines in my apartment, I've been trying to research the "Audiophile APS Purepower 2000" as an AC source for my 200W mono-blocks. Again, I'm reading that one has to be very cautious when dealing with high current amps, but I don't understand that caution...What could possibly be wrong with 20 amps and 200 watts of virgin AC newly created from DC?

Im sorry, that should have read "2000" watts.
