I would like to shade light about what is doing on with PurePower PP2000. I know that the readers of my site have own brain, at least some of them, and they do not need me or anybody else to “shade light” on anything. Still, since I was the initiator of the resent PP2000 commotions I feel that my analyses of the situation would be warranted.
I know that there are people out there who feel disappointed about my report that my new PP2000 sounds wrong. Trust me, I feel more that disappointed. Still on the scale of larger picture I feel that what is going on now is one of the best things that happen to PurePower and even for the entire industry. I hope that the brainless idiots who visit my site to looks at the picture and pick some “buy” recommendations will stop to read right here. I hope that the idiot PurePower marketing director – Bob Rapoport will not read further as what will be further would require cognitive intellect – something that he does not have.
Ok, what is coming nest? I would like to offer you to think. I have noted the problem with sound when I detected that sound quality was very drastically change in my room from day to day and during the day. It did not happen before. Now I have 3 different power feeds in my house and they all sound different. When I connect PP2000 to any of those feeds then PP2000 sound bad but bad differently at each of my feeds. At the very same time my PP2000 sound fine from own battery. Now remember Dima’s Avicenna regenerator? The Avicenna outputs a perfect power wave with ultra low distortion, still the Avicenna has no sonic impact to sound – playback with Avicenna and with Avicenna in bypass sound identical.

Now many of you have many different regenerators and power treatment devices. You know that some of them work sometimes, in fact some of them work very well. But another day the main have different electricity as the devices is absolutely not effective. You know for instance that PS Audio Power Plant does out MUCH better wave and my lower distortion abut has no good sound and very transparent to the bad problem that comes from mains. Now, put all of what I described together. If you do then it would not be difficult to conclude that the problems with my new PP2000 regenerators have are not just that they “sound bad from AC” but that they suddenly stopped to be immune to the problems of electricity in mains. Anybody who played with electricity and sound does know that a perfect wave and low distortions is not assurance of good sound, that there is “something else” in it. This “something else” got accidently broken in the new PP2000 and this broken “something else” made the new PP2000 do not disengage itself sonically to the bad electricity in main (Despite all DC flatting and regeneration is going on). Essentially the new PP2000 sound remarkably similar to the way how PS Audio Power Plant sounds…
Sure, it is desperately desirable to have someone to blame. Sure it is the bad and mean PurePower fuck up own regenerator. The reality is much more complicated. This “something else” is not known criteria and no one know what will affect that “something else”. In fact as now, the PurePower folks are working in emergency mode, making experiments and are trying to figure out what the problem might be. I guess that it might be tricky as the regenerator that they have in their test might inherent only quality of electricity that they currently have. We do not know what make sound to sound bad; we do not know that makes PP2000 to tune itself from that that “make sound to sound bad” – I am sure that it is not too pleasurable research. However, there is a fantastic catch in all of it. The key to the good electricity sound are in those few changes that PurePower accidently made recently.
So, why I feel that the things that are going on are best things that happen to PurePower and even for the entire industry? Have some imagination. Let pretend that reversing some changes PurePower discovered the reason why their PP2000 suddenly stopped to sound properly. This reason will be a “primer” for good electricity sound. Furthermore it very much might be the case that neither regeneration nor perfect wave even necessary for electricity to be good for audio and all that necessary is to have the “primer” injected in regular main. At least, if the PurePower will discover the primer then it will be assurance that their regenerators will be fine sounding in future. So, even I pissed and my playback is down, I am superbly enthusiastic about the result that it might lead to. I do feel that what is might lead to is larger than PurePower and larger than me to fix my PP2000. Let hope that it all current situation will lead to some kind of true breakthrough discovery.
