Can I plug a

Hello everyone,

I live in New York City which has very bad electrical problems for audio and video. I just had the electrician put a dedicated 20 amp for my video, and I still get fluctuations anywhere from 112 to 120, never a consistent solid voltage. I bought a Richard gray pole pig thinking that would help and nothing, well not nothing, it keeps it no lower than 115.

I was thinking of buying a PS Audio power regenarator and connecting that to the wall and then connecting the pole pig to that.

Is that possible? Anyone with experience in this? Thanks for the help guys

I would reverse the order - plug the RG Pole Pig into the wall & plug the AC regenerator to the Pole Pig. The quality of the AC from the wall has a big effect on the AC region - the Pole Pig can help to reduce the bad effects of AC from the wall outlet. This is what I do - I don't have the Pole Pig but I have 400S Mk1 & I have my PS Audio P300 connected to it the output of the 400S. Works great for me (i've only got the front-end components connected to the P300; electronics that draws 25W-50W i.e. low current). 


I don't like power conditioners, but found Richard Gray the very worst.
hmmmmm....very interesting stringreen. can you please elaborate why RGPS was the worst for you? thanks.
