hmmm sorry Romy for the lost of your pp2000 ....
I would like to share one opinion from a technician that lives in Japan and lived in Chile . We were discussing the issues of electricity and he said "Lines in Chile are poor quiality , cables are too thin from the street and from houses" so you change the cables that come from outside and the ones inside your apartment and ask the electricity company to supply you 440V and then buy a good galvanic isolator transformer with step down , now you can use clean , 220V energy . I can understand the use of the isolator transformer but asking for 440V and the step down ?? I do not know , but audiophiles in Japan are fighting the electricity problems asiking the company to supply 220V and then they use step down transformes to 110V . Any conclusion in this aproach ?
Joaco,  I do not think  that it is worthy direction. I mean it might provide some benefits, like anything else might provide them but it has nothing to do with addressing the electricity problems in a way how I understand them.
