Oh no, after all, you haven't even said anything about how it sounds. I suspect that both the Avicenna and the PP2000 will be equally great. However, since you mentioned Dima was thinking of making this into a commercial product possibly, I couldn't resist the idea of buying one after seeing that sine wave. So basically, it is the oscilloscope holding me hostage.

I would not explain at this point how Avicenna, it would be long and I do not know if it worth it since I do not know how it sounds. About the oscilloscope being the ultimate judge – it is complicated. I am not convinced that the perfect sine-wave is direct evidence that electricity would sound better. PS Audio PowerPlant outputs a perfect sinusoid but has no right sound. I think in PowerPlant the problem with those large transformers that they put signals after the amps. The PurePower has no magnetic afar the regenerator, only carrying frequency killing filters. Avicenna has by nature absolutely nothing after the reconstruction of sinusoid, absolutely nothing. It has even no feedback in a normal sense from output and absolutely not sensitive to the type of the load. That was the whole idea. Still, I am afraid of the “PS Audio Syndrome” as if it has a perfect sinusoid but shitty sound then I would have difficulty to know what to do with Avicenna further …
