Living in Australia n not having much luck with getting decent power strips for my equipment :roll_eyes:

Have you considered building your own using Aus standard sockets?

Nup Mike thought it b easy enough to buy sumthin as I don’t like making stuff for use with electrical as I’d always wonder if it was safe :roll_eyes::joy::joy:

Hi,

Firstly, the PS Audio PowerPlant 20 is not a mains conditioner, it’s a mains regenerator.
I use a PowerPlant in my system and wouldn’t be without it as the improvement it brings is huge.

The PS 20 is the current top of the range and will easily handle your system.
Try one at home, - it’s the only way to really tell.

Regards,
Mark Dunn

Awsum thanx for that what does it bring to Ur system

@MarkDunn is correct in that it is a power regenerator. Completely different.
I own the Stellar P3 for all of my sources and plug it into my 20a dedicated line. My Integrated is plugged directly into the wall, though. Anyway, I would not be without one, either. PS Audio Power Regenerators are fantastic pieces of audio ingenuity and one of the more worthwhile investments in this department. Agreed that typically power conditioners are a no-go with most things Naim.

It’s no picnic here, either. This entire planet’s untenable…but at least there’s music.
I’d describe what the Power Plants bring to one’s system, however they’re likely tired accolades. Read up on some of what’s being said on the PS Audio forum. Lots of great descriptions and explanations of what they do. I’ve been a fan of both Isolation Transformers and Power Regeneration for some time.

There are a few good ones around, you do have search. The best ones seem to be online, it’s difficult to get power conditioners here though.

Yep crazy times indeed cool I’ll give that a wee look… Yep gotta have music :notes: :grin:

Might want to look at the Shunyata Research products. I’m using the Denali S6000 v.2 . I’m not a fan of the PS Audio regenerators. A lot of complexity that adds a lot of failure points.

I have my rig 252/300/dCS source and the lot fed by P20
It’s a big improvement for me - but my dilemma is - I have polluted mains but impractical to install a separate spur

I would say try to have a separate spur for Hi-Fi then test other power equipment

Apparently some are happy with the PS power plant. But I read also the contrary 2 times from memory. ( with Naim of course).
So if the OP can try and return if not satisfied, why not.

I’ve had a couple of other PS Audio units in the past in two separate houses where the mains was polluted pretty badly and wiring that was less than ideal for audio rigs (one house built in the early 1900s and another in the late 60’s). Both houses had Naim systems at one point or another, and both received a marked improvement with the regenerators. Now that I have dedicated lines for the audio, it improves things for certain, but to a lesser extent; not like what I remember what they did for the other places.

Major break through. My upstream equipment is the cause of this sibilance. For the last 10 years with the ProAc, I have favoured the Purepower power regenerator to power all my front end whether be it digital or analogue pieces. I have tried the PS Audio power plants but found them to be too ‘soft’.

Last night, I swapped out the Purepower for a PS Audio P5 I had lying around. I think I am now on track and can start to settle the speakers in terms of positioning and placement and tuning. What a relief.
