Would slew rate not be covered under full power frequency response? I don’t see how it would not @fundsgon . Audio Science recently tested a PS Audio Powerplant with connected amplifier and measured noise and distortion. The results are "interesting". Not as interesting as the backlash, but interesting. I don’t consider this test to be definitive though. It see it more as a test of the adequacy of the amplifier, than of the relevance of the Powerplant. The amplifier was adequately designed and did not require the Powerplant. If you have a finicky tube amplifier, the results could be different. I expect for noise, that the results will be depending on all the connected equipment, not a single piece. This is another area where Audio Science, one of the only doing this level of testing, also appears deficient. Unfortunately, our hobby eschews measurement leaving us to gamble on the end result or hoping that independent sites stumble on a result relevant to us.
What should I expect after installing a new power management system?
Trying to decide between Shunyata, synergistic, transparent, Niagara from audio quest. They cost between 5000 and $8000. What can I expect when I plug my various components into this pricey box.? Plan on also getting several higher end power cables. I thought about buying a regenerator but didn't feel this was a good thing
I have heard many things about noise floor and current clean up and a new one, improved transients.
Anyone buy a new power system lately?

@celtic66 , can you tell us what else is in your system and how it is connected? Do you have both a turntable and DAC? |
@fundsgon , there are 2 threads, and a video. You will need to read both threads (first post) to get the full story. |
