Puritan Audio 156 or 136 vs PIAudio UberBuss

Hey,

BRM over on ACircle also had an Uberbuss and now has a PSM 156 and so do I.

Wig 👍

Thanks Wig, I sent him a pm over there to ask for some insights

Wig, I am building a helix power cord for the Puritan 156.  Did you find it better than the stock cord?

@ grannyring

Yes, better clarity, tighter image focus and tighter bass. Notable improvements on the Inakustik 3500P Conditioner which I had previously before the Puritan.

Glad to hear you like the Puritan 156. We are using it to demo the Cube Nenuphar’s and Nenuphar Mini’s powered by the Bakoon 13R integrated, with great results here in the U.K. Best filter we have come across at any price imo.

@wig A bit late to this thread, but I am in the process of making a decision on the psm156 vs Uberbuss. I wondered if you could give a bit more details on both, and the reasons for moving on from UberBuss to pas156. I have been reading threads on Audiocircle, but I am left with the same questions. I would appreciate some more elaboration.

Thanks!

I have no experience with the Uberbuss but BRM over on AC does.

Thanks Wig,

I did put in a post on the AC forum. No reply yet.

I had the same question and messaged BRM on Audiocircle, his response to me was simply that he did not find the Uber to be anywhere near close to the quiet of the Puritan, and not very effective.

@facten  Thank you. I did the same and PM'ed BRM. I put in an order for the psm 156. Due to my location in Asia, I paid retail minus VAT shipped. I'll report in a couple of weeks.

@ledoux1238,

Looking forward to your impressions. 

Well, I have one 156 on the way.....
