Anyone try the Power Purifier DoublePlus PP++?


Anyone try the Power Purifier DoublePlus PP++?
Just wondering if any Audiogonner's have tried this tweak yet.

It's a fairly new item from " The Mad Scientist" its called the Power Purifier Double Plus PP++. I found the item on another site.
They claim this is a real improvement in the world of power conditioning.

Here is some comments from the Mad Scientist web site describing the effect.

"Effects

Usually the first thing noticed is the extension and detail in the treble and bass. But soon afterwards you notice many improvements across the whole range. As well as helping get the tonal characteristics of the music right, another thing I often hear relates to "sounds that occur very close together" - one example on one track there is the slap of bass string. After listening with Power Purifier I could hear the string slapping multiple times, where before it had only resolved one slap.

I thought I had a pretty good amplifier so I was astonished when I heard what I'd been missing.

If you score normal BlackDiscus as a 5, then BlackSticks are somewhat better, say a 7 or 8. But Power Purifier is in another league - scoring 14-15. Seriously."

This is from other users;
"my review notes stated in large bold face: “BASS!!” Not excessive, tuneless, flabby, exaggerated bass. No, this was focused, deep, tuneful bass with PRAT and exceptional detail and drive...Its simply astounding effect on bass reproduction, coupled with its superb reduction in over-all grunge, allows the music to speak in a way that is deeply communicative and moving."

Well, I'm such a tweaker, I went ahead and ordered it.
I'll post my results.

Well, even though the Power Purifier Double Plus PP++ didn't make it into my Audio system.
I must say with my Video equipment it has shined. I think its because of the lower power requirements.
The Video is enhanced with deeper blacks.
Well I am now into 4 days with the MSA "Power Purifier Double Plus".
What I notice is that with my Pass Amp there is actually a lessening of the bass.
But, there is more air in the upper end and that is nice. I think the Power Plus should use heavier gauge wire, it is only 14 gauge wire.

So, I am now trying it on my Pass Preamp which draws less current. As of right now I think there is an improvement with that piece of equipment but I'm not sure. I'll play it that way for a few days then remove it from my Preamp and see if I miss it.

I also tried it on my video setup and saw no Improvement.

I am glad you are trying this device. I am impressed with this company. On my audio system no improvement with their black disc products except when I tried the smaller free samples on my SACD player. That was a nice improvement. The company was great with free shipping and was hassle free on returns during the 30 day money back trial.

I look forward to your observations.
Well I just received the Power Purifier DoublePlus PP++.
They were shipped on Monday from New Zealand and I received them 3 days later!
Can't believe know one has heard about this device. For those who care, if you visit there website they will send a free sample of the black discus.

Sorry for the crazy double posting.
