Well, it is sad but all across internet, and at this site (http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=20851) there are comments about pure Purepower service and problems with Purepower units that they "improve". I kind of sympathize w...

Since yesterday I have received a number a number emails regarding the recent PurePower organization events. Some of them asked me why a post was removed from my site yesterday. The post was from the user “Jorge “and it was deleted by request of th...

I think the truth is somewhere in the middle. I do not believe that PP2000 shall be treated as appliances. Purepower units are complex machinery and they have to be serviced only by Purepower technicians. I would never agree to have an external pers...

It is mean rainy day today in Boston and I’ve been playing with my new PurePower 3000 regenerator. It has been a bit bumpy as there was a frustrating issue, that looks like a shipping damage, the PurePower guys promise to fix it.My initial sentim...

PurePower Canada has officially earned the title of the single worst company I have ever had to deal with. They are either stunningly incompetent, or simply criminal. The degree of incompetence would have to be so great, though, as to be virtually im...

[quote user="manisandher"] So why do I now prefer the sound with the PP2000 as opposed to last year when I stopped using it? I think it's because last year I never plugged all the components into it. Playing around with various configurations the...

In this section I will brief cover operational parameters of Purepower 2000 regenerator. I do not have a lot of fun to write this section but I feel that for sake of objectivity it is necessary. Also the next section – the sonic observations - might ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]This morning I was listening Messiaen’s Tarantella-Symphony powering system from the bare AC lines. It was far from the sound I would like to have and I decided one more time to insult myself with PP2000. This time I decide...

Paul, You do have a strange attitude toward Purepower. You, for whatever reason to put your in the position of consumer advocacy and I think it is a bit cloud your judgment. What interesting that your judgment is absolutely irrelevant for ether the p...

[quote user="steverino"]Romy,
Are you aware that there is a new?! site for pure power - (removed) - which has the following statement on their site
A management change at the end of 2011 closed the Canadian office. That office can no lo...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]OK, everything was fine and I might do into the sonic nuances of the PurePower unit. The PurePower drives a lot of switching nose from output. It has the filters but they help only partially. Adding capacitance to the PureP...

[quote user="decoud"]Yes, but is not the real question *how* different from the Taiwanese company's standard double conversion UPS the purepower units really are. If they are effectively the same topology and components (http://www.winstream.com.tw/p...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]... I will showily dump in this thread some observations of mine about APS PurePower regenerator... [/quote]If you, I, they, we, whoever… consider APS PurePower as just a power treating or regenerating devise then I feel th...

[quote user="Lx_"] Indeed when the battery gets charged the sound is different from when it is charged. I have noticed this especially after the battery is discharged completely (after PP shuts itself down when running on battery). I think this i...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I did not say how my saga with APS Pure Power regenerator finish but it never finished. Since the end of the last year the regenerators is sitting in my closet and I have sent the unit’s main board to APS people for the “re...

[quote user="PurePower"]However, it is important to understand that the solution to ground issues will have to be found in the house AC ground wiring, not in the PurePower 2000. The 2000 produces a completely new 230 volt AC sine wave that is absolut...

[quote user="SOS "]What about this issue of humming, this is a reoccurring theme that has not been addressed. Even my own 2000+ unit I sold to a gentleman that owned an original 2000 unit who said he would be able to figure the issue out had the humm...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] The AC factor? This is more complex. My last APS PurePower reregenerator (the fifth unit!!!) does quite amassing things but the reregenerator’s use is not as a straight forward as it might be expected. The PurePower is VER...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
A few words before I lay down the facts. Over the last week I got a number of signals from PurePower that I shall not defame their products. Their marketing director Bob Rapoport – a certifiable idiots – informed me that...

[quote user="Paul S"]It surprises me if you wish to do away with the battery. Or, perhaps a unit could be offered "less battery", which the purchaser/user could add on his/her own. This would "solve" the logistical problems (and the expense) of shchl...

[quote user="Canuck"] From what I understand, if you have dimmer switches they will present a "noise" problem for anything on the same panel. One thing that could help and possibly significantly would be to do a pony box off the panel and hopefully...

Eli, I do not think that it is PurePower objective to grab your money and to run. They are notorious with delays and it certainly might be unpleasant. With all due respect: 2 month delay is kind of nothing and if the unit does work as it expected th...

Drdna, I do not think that the email above is “Spam e-mail”
just because they promoted the Chinese version of PurePower. Everybody who followed
this story knows about the history and the relationship between Chinese and Canadian
PurePower. If th...

hi folks, especially drdna,
Has anyone actually bothered to read my bad experience with Richard Janzen and PurePower, in https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/bad-experience-with-purepower-of-canada, before calling...

Dear Don C
A few facts you are missing, and a libelous statement that need correcting.
The PurePower product was designed and manufactured in Canada starting in 2003 by Audiophile APS Inc., years before any production was outsourced to Taiwan. ...

As you pointed out, the Chinese website looks to be a link to the Chinese company contracted originally by PurePower to build their units, who then tried to sell the units on their own, ignoring the patent. I'm not sure how long since the website was...

It is always entertaining to see a story about PurePower. I say simply that Richard should make good on the refund as quickly as possible.I am always surprised to hear about customers who are surprised about this sort of thing happening with audiophi...
