Review: EXACTPOWER EP15A Tweak


Category: Accessories

I just purchased the new ExactPower EP-15A AC Line Voltage Regulator from a Audiogon Seller " Chichiuno ".

The first thing I noticed when taking it out of the box was the build quality, all aluminum, and heavy. I pluged the EP-15A into the wall and all of my gear into the eight AC outlets on the back of the unit.

I turned the EP-15A on and played Lee Ritenour Rit's House, and I was amazed! It was as if I added another 50 watts to my Power Amp! The volume level had to be turned down from the normal listening position. The sound was smooth and rich. The sonic benefits from this unit are cleaner sound with no hum, and power, power, power! My Velodyne pumped out deeper bass, the Monitor Audio tweeters produced crisp high frequencies without sounding too bright, and the mid-range truly opened up with finer detail.

The EP-15A made a big difference in the sound of my system, but that's not all, the picture quality of my TV increased dramatically with brighter colors and sharper picture.

If you are looking for a cost effective way to give your system the boost it needs, try the ExactPower EP-15A. "You can't go wrong with ExactPower on".

Search for The Sound Steward and you'll find it. Tried to post his number here but mods rejected that.
 has anyone replaced the capacitor's that Steve age is talking about? Or has anyone had any luck getting a hold of him and or getting a schematic? I emailed him through his website but have not received a response.  he mentions  two 100 uf caps in the 12 V supply. The only 100 µF caps I could find were eight of those. I cannot see which two he has specified. I guess I could replace all of the eight but  I am worried that I might mess something up if I oversize them by a factor of 10. Any feedback and or tips from anyone who has modded these units?
