I’m wondering whether any fellow readers have experience of mains power plant regenerators as a potential upgrade path. I have a Naim CDS3/Highline/XPS2/Nac252/SuperCap/Nap250/Nac5 driving a pair of nearly new Focal Kanta No.1’s in my modestly sized room. I love the system, but am intrigued how far the CDS3 performance might benefit from;
Changing the XPS2 to an XPS2 DR; probably the nett cost would be around £1,000
Adding a power plant regeneration (a well regarded PS Audio model around the £2,000 mark) for the XPS. It seems that the power plant might also be able to support the SuperCap.
Saving hard (and long) and looking for a 555PS DR to replace the XPS2
Observations and/or first hand experience input warmly welcomed. Thank you.
I see, I just thought this might be a worthwhile option maybe. By the way, there is also a current thread about xps dr vs non-dr, and lots of threads about power conditioning. Just saying, because contributors to these threads might not want to repeat their posts here, and you may find helpful info in the other threads
