"At my demo facility in Denmark, we have the Krell Evolution 505 and 202 connected to a PP 2000i and it sounds really good.   Amps are 2x Evolution 400 and speakers Wilson WATT/Puppy8.  

 We have also ARC CD8 and LS26 connected to a PP 1050i.   Speakers are Montana XPS and amps are 2x ARC 610T - and I have never in my life heard anything as good - my goodness !!!!"

PurePower™ 2000i

"I just want to pass on how well the Pure Power 2000 is doing in Angola.  On a daily average I loose power 6 to 7 times and day. The 2000 keeps my system running smooth and I have no more sharp spikes when I loose power. Out of all the equipment I own this should be the first one buy.
 
Thanks Again for all your help.

"Rarely does a power product come along that takes away nothing and instead, enhances almost every aspect of your system. The PurePower 1050i is one such uncommon beast."

PurePower™ 2000

Audiophiles are a funny group. Compulsive, often manic depressive and deeply committed to their audio systems. Ask us to describe the latest improvements and we become Oscar Wilde dipping into our deep hat of colorful descriptive adjectives. What happened last night left me drawing a complete blank as I gasped for words to convey my reaction to a product I am evaluating for my company.

Pure Power AC Regenerator Model 2000 is the product. Damian Janzen is the co-owner and if he doesn't walk around with a "Viagra-like grin" on his face all the time, then he is simply too modest. In case I am boring you, let me cut to the chase. With a completely straight face, I can stake my professional reputation on this statement: This  is the most astounding single product I have ever listened to in 35 years of this hobby.  Maybe because its inexpensive ... maybe because I don't see people camped out on street corners claiming their lives have been changed by this thing... or just maybe because I have not read about it or heard about it nearly enough in the mainstream press.   Whatever the reason, I don't understand how it isn't hailed as  the cure for cancer or the world economy. Oh yes, it is that good.  This is from their site:

 “The PurePower™ APS (Audio Power Supply) provides truly regenerated pure power regardless of what problems exist in your utility supply. This is accomplished through our double conversion technology.  We convert the incoming power to produce a clean DC current, then recreate a 60 Hz, 120 volt AC wave-form from the DC.  No spikes, sags, surges or other power disturbances can be passed through from input to output.”

I found out about it from a very erudite audio buddy of mine who has Boulder amps and Wilson Maxx 2 speakers. He maintained I was  "out of touch " by not carrying this line.   Out of touch... how dare you sir! I read everything printed in page and web text, I am the obsessive compulsive one remember?

Sonics: Detail you never knew existed on recordings. Microscopic detail in fact. Weight of cymbals, density of plucked string, depth of percussion and voices... oh my .... voices that defy you to say this is an electrical reproduction event.

Tone: Nothing can prepare you for the kaleidoscope of tonal purity this product delivers. Period, end of discussion.

Transients: The acceleration from midnight to attack is startling. You will be digging out every percussion disc you own and rushing to the computer to order everything you can get with  explosive orchestral passages.

Purity: This is difficult to describe but it all sounds so natural and effortless. Dynamic swings take you by surprise but never at the expense of ease and continuous flow.

The price: You will be wishing you got a few of these before Damian gets wise and triples the price.

System: Aerial 20 T speakers, Aerial SW 12 subs. Conrad Johnson LP140 Monoblocs, Wadia 781i cd-sacd player, David Elrod Statement Gold cables, Critical Mass Grand Master isolation RPG acoustical treatment. All lines are isolated - dedicated from a separate sub panel, separate grounding rod for this system …. every piece of gear on its own circuit.

PurePower™ 2000

Pure Power 2000 significantly enhanced the sonics over and above what my previous high end AC conditioner provided: greater dynamics with more punch and liveliness, cleaner and faster transients, better defined and tighter bass, more open highs yielding greater delicacy, increased resolution of complex orchestral passages, cleaner and purer harmonic texture, easier to perceive nuances and longer decays, more natural and relaxed presentation, and enhanced soundstage elements: depth, focus, air, separation of instruments, and transparency.

PurePower™ 2000

 

Immediately apparent now is the startling clarity offered by the music playing system, like a window glass that has just been wiped clean. Noise floor is very certainly brought down by a mile. I found myself now admiring the focus of each and every instrument within the deep, wide sound stage!

The vocals are now very palpable and believable. In fact so good, with recordings that have it, you can certainly hear a face in the room too! I really liked the Pure Power APS 2000 powering my system, it's probably one of the best power line solutions money can buy today.

PurePower™ 1050

"It HAS TO BE one of the finest audio products there is!

Had an audiophile friend over yesterday for an audition. He had heard my system several times 'before' the 1050. Had a good basis for comparison. Auditioning session ran 3 hours. 

He was absolutely blown away by the improvements he heard .. and this guy has heard 'his' more times than he can remember .. but NEVER LIKE THIS!

I, personally, am blown away every time I now watch a DVD! Has taken it to a whole new level. Let me tell you .. I didn't know my equipment was 'this' good .. until now! I could go on and on .. but I won't. I know you've heard it all before.

PurePower™ 2000

"I appreciate audio devices that instead of demonstrating their own qualities, force you to think about sound. The new PurePower 2000 is turning to be such a device. I have so many ideas and so many thoughts with the sound the 2000 produces that I truly surprised myself. Today, spending many hours with my new regenerator and listening to music, I could not hold myself from laughing as many times I caught myself acknowledging that this or that aspect of the sound was exactly how I always insisted it should be. It was like being an orphan and suddenly discovering one's own parents

Somehow the PP2000 surgically removes all negative manifestations that are typically associated with bad electricity but keeps everything else absolutely un-affected.

After spending those 4 days with the PurePower 2000, I suggest that they adopt my proposal for a new slogan: "We do not 'f ***-up' your Sound." As far as my familiarity with power treatment devices is concerned, I know of no other power company or product that might be entitled to use this slogan.

It looks like the PurePower 2000 resolves the problem with electricity once and for good..."

PurePower™ 1050

I'm a real advocate of PurePower.  I'm in the UK and suffer from "dirty mains" - lots of voltage fluctuation and harmonics that cause the torroidial transformers on my valve (tube) amp to hum badly.
 
I did a lot of research into various techniques to "clean up" the mains, and decided to go for regeneration.  Frankly, nothing else seemed to make sense to me - I'm not an electrical engineer, but
the thought of trying to resolve mains quality and interference problems using "smoothing" techniques just didn't add up !
 
So I spent my UKŁ to buy the 1050 and the difference is simply astounding.  The overall system quality is significantly improved - the noise floor seems much lower and subjectively the sound is more dynamic or "agile". 
 
I'm a vinyl junkie with a top-end system (VAC Phi-Beta amp, Sonus Faber Amati speakers, Oracle 1.1 Ultra-Wide cables, Roksan TMS2 T/T with SME V arm, Clearaudio Insider Ref Cartridge and Clearaudio phone stage) and I was not expecting to notice such a big difference running the system on the APS,
but my ears tell me otherwise !

“I wouldn’t build a high-end  home theater system without a PurePower device.  Battery back up is just a start.   Completely clean, regenerated power is yet another. If top performance and 100% reliability are at the top of your list of system goals – I would make the investment in Pure Power.”

PurePower™ 700

 

The level of improvement this added to my already exceptional system was akin to a total system upgrade; it did more than I could have imagined a power product could do. Add in all the protection, ability to run on battery power and the fact that I can safely use my system during our frequent Florida lightning storms without worry, and I think it’s a steal. I am keeping this in my system and recommend you get one, too.

In the end, this is the best, most performance-oriented AC power device we have tested at AVRev.com

"This is some terrific product, the difference in the clarity of the video, especially in hi def, was remarkable. WOW. I hadn't expected that much difference in picture quality. 

I'm actually going to use this unit for my audio equipment, so, I'll just have to get another for video."

PurePower™ 1050

"I tried each component connected to a wall outlet, then connected to the Pure Power 1050. In every case, the component sounded better when connected to the APS device."

"The other thing that was immediately apparent was an increase in the ease with which the music flowed. The previously sluggish stream was now a steady-flowing river. Cool!"

"I now consider the APS Pure Power 1050 to be an integral part of my audio system, one that I would not want to live without. Highly recommended!"

PurePower™ 1050

"Auditioner beware: after hearing this level of performance improvement, there is no way I can live without Pure Power in my system."

"Clearly the Audiophile APS PurePower 1050 performed better than the Richard Gray 400s on my video projector ... I have come to the conclusion that the PurePower 1050 is the ultimate piece of electronics for video use. Combined with the vast improvements in color and contrast, something that many display devices lack in this day of fixed pixel digital displays, it provides better backup for safeguarding your display by allowing it to properly cool off in the event of a power outage."

"The PurePower 1050’s sonic and video improvements eclipse the impressive feats I remember vividly while evaluating the Exact Power EP15A."

PurePower™ 1050

"With the Audiophile APS in use, the various rhythms and textures that he used were reproduced with much more clarity. The different types of cymbals used could be heard much more easily. The increase in clarity was not accompanied by any hardness or glare, and that's a good thing. Tonally, music overall from top to bottom seemed richer, more full sounding as compared to the sound using the PS-Audio P-300."

"I am not aware of any other power line regenerator that has all of the capabilities of the APS 1050. Considering price, performance, technology and style, the Audiophile APS PurePower 1050 Power Conditioner receives my highest recommendation."

PurePower™ 1050

"I live in central Fla - we get daily lightening storms for 6 months of the year which will test the toughest of PLCs. One of the reasons I'm purchasing a 1050 is because of what sounds like impenetrable surge protection."

"A few years ago, I lost about $8000 USD worth of amps (which I thought were well protected thru a Tice Powerblock 3C) and last year I lost a board in my prepro thru a BMI Shark PLC. The batteries (conversion to DC) seem an integral part of the design and the surge protection so I just wanted to ensure that the batteries were robust and that I'd have some way to know when to replace them. Replacing $400 worth of batteries is trivial compared to damaged equipment."

"Looks like a terrific product and unique in the marketplace - thanks."

PurePower™ 1050

"Audiophilia is about finding insight into and deriving enjoyment from recorded music that's simply unavailable without gear of sufficient quality. Audiophile APS can take pride in knowing they're providing such access."

"All of the intimacy and the immediacy of Cullum live, including the way he hugs the microphone and the position of the band, are conveyed through the playback chain powered by the PurePower 1050."

"Now knowing what an improvement the '1050 makes to my system in total, I'm starting to dread having to send the unit back."

Audiophile APS 1000 

“For our test, we used a pair of Bryston 7B SST monoblocks and the Acoustic Arts power amplifier. Thus, we had two very power-hungry systems that can draw as much as 1000 watts when in operation… The APS handled the loads effortlessly when in the regenerating mode. We then pulled the plug and, to our utmost surprise, the system(s) continued to perform as though power hadnąt been interrupted at all.”

 “…the APS … picked up subtle distinctive and complex underlying tonal structures never ascertained before. Midrange clarity improved as well and may be the result of the amplifiersą noise-free performance. …the APS allowed better, more clear-cut imaging, focus and time-based accuracy.”

Audiophile APS 1000 

“…all looked and sounded spectacular, with great dynamics and a superb high definition picture…”
 “With the APS 1000 we are adding… a much greater purity of AC signal and all the benefits it confers on picture and sound.”

“In a home theatre system …cleaning up the AC seems to me a good investment, one that you can definitely see and hear...”

"I do not notice any annoying buzzing sounds from my amp and other components any more, it helped a lot and the television picture is better as well. Having all the major components plugged in does make a big difference".
