Power cord feeding a power conditioner/regenerator



I am waiting for my Purepower APS 3000 to be delivered; it comes (it's the european version; I am from Italy) with a stock power cord with 20A IEC, so I can't use my power cords (Cardas Golden Reference) to evaluate how do they work on the power regenerator in comparison to the stock one.

I should buy a new cable with 20A IEC, or do it by myself buying a piece of a brand cable and the right connectors (Furutech, Oyaide, Wattgate).

Any experience, before I make an useless buy?

Thanks,

I will receive soon (within the next week) a 2,5 meters Cardas Golden Reference power cord with 20A IEC (there is this option on Cardas list).

I will make you know whow it works in comparison to the Purepower 3000 stock power cord (I expect to hear a little more naturalness and dynamics).

After a week of burn in (during this time system sounded almost "thin"), Purepower had a big impact on my system, I did not expect so much, I would recommend it to anyone who feels that his system is limited by bad electricity issues.

What surprised me was stronger an very deeper bass, soundstage is more open with more widht an height, I hear instruments and details I've never heard in many records I know very well, slightly better dynamics, sound is more natural even at very high SPLs : listening fatigue due to mid-highs aggressiveness (caused by bad electricity) is totally gone !

I am very happy and I think that with the new power cord for the PP I will be happier.. stay tuned.
It will be interesting to see if Purepower knows their own product they engineered. I'm guessing they do. David.
According to what Purepower does, it shouldn't require anything special coming into it.[http://www.purepoweraps.com/regen.htm]
I think claims like "this filter/regenerator TOTALLY isolates from electric line" are only marketing.

My Torus CS-15 claimed the same thing and every time I turned on a light or fan, I would hear a pop. So much for isolation...

A regenerator should give true new clean power. There is still air-born RF interference generated from other electrical/electronics that can be picked up after the unit too.
