I have a PS Audio P600 Power Plant and wanted to try the 500 because it was smaller and fit better in my system. I found the fan loud and the unit ran hot and would frequently shut down. This was the first production run so there could of been a problem with the unit. I returned it to my dealer and kept the P600.
PS Audio 500 questions
I received a PS Audio 500 today that I purchased on Audiogon. I plugged a tube preamp and a tube phono preamp into the TWave setup sockets and plugged my CD and Turntable into the ultimate outlet sockets on the back. The output voltage was first set to 117V and the to 115V. The power usage display runs about 50% as it should, but after a few minutes the display binks HOT and the regneration outlets shut down. Did I purchase a bad unit or is there something I don't understand?
