Vinshine X Collaboration with Kinki Studio, TheTai Hang power enhancer


What a surprise after installing the Taihang in my system,, in a word, amazing.  Stage depth clarity was amoung one of the first things I notice.  My system consists of tubes pre and power amps, with a digital and analog front end.  Tubes as we know exhibit a second harmonic noise distortion which is a given and something we live with as it’s our perception as being more musical.  Dirty power can add more nastiness to this by way of unfiltered AC.  With the addition of the Taihang it has made all the background information much more clearer.  My speakers are fairly high resolving so was able to take advantage of this additional gain the Taihang give me.  Leading edges from instruments started and stopped more precisely still retaining musicality. Black background noise seemed non existent as we like saying but in this case it really does without straining to not hear.  So clean power can do all this, seems to be!  Also will mention as in some cases experienced with power amps, I sensed no loss in dynamics or compression which is one of the biggest concerns when implementing such products.  This in my first day of listening.  So again I’ll go back to my original statement, amazing!   Alvin’s collaboration as he calls it, has some magic inside this beautifully crafted box.

OK, I just added it to my 2-channel rig and Wowza!  No edge to anything, more detail, more weight, better timbre, soundstage.  It reveals more detail but not in a fatiguing sorta way.  I think the more revealing your rig is the more you'll appreciate this.  An absolute bargain at its price.

Not trying to be a fanboy, but this is one of those improvements that keeps you hooked on the hobby.  I thought my rig sounded better before, but I was hoping for more body and better timbre.  Mission accomplished!  Cycling through my collection and have absolutely no reservation about playing any type of genre.  That's always the sign of a good piece of kit.

this is my first "full" power conditioner.  I resisted getting one for all these years because I thought it was too close to snake oil.  It's a huge improvement over the balanced isolation transformer I was using.  All the usual improvements people cite from improving power are there.. much blacker background, sense of ease and lack of listening fatigue.. the equipment just seems to work better.. monoblock amps seem more dynamic with less compression affecting dynamic peaks in the music.  I'm incredibly happy with it.  Build quality is great too, the chassis is solid as a rock and sockets are all perfectly mounted, the faceplate is beautifully cnc'ed with horizontal ridges.  even the blue led is noticeably dimmed to prevent annoyance.  A really great product. You can tell they spent a lot of time on it.  appearance is super polished and beautiful.  all my other gear is black but the silver tai hang is so pretty I don't mind it standing out on my shelf

Every dc blockers and balanced transformers I ever used suppresses transients and dynamics, particularly with amplifiers.

So all the reports saying this device not doing that is exciting. A foil inductor for power conditioning? Very interesting.

@alvin1118 going by internal pictures you are doing a stage of filtering for each 2 outlet receptacle? This means adding a third receptacle (to get 6 outlets) would be difficult?

Perhaps you could make the boards modular and have them in the chassis sideways, so the Tai Hang could have 4/6/8 outlet versions?
