I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too?


My PurePower APS 1050 AC Regenerator made an incredible difference in my system. Since everything connected to the unit is fed perfect, steady 120V power, is there any reason to expect that running a dedicated 20 amp AC line to my system and installing new high end receptacles would make any difference at all??? If you have experience with this I would appreciate your opinion, if you have an opinion without experience, tell me your thoughts about this. Hurry, before I spend any more money just to find out!

Thanks.

The only benefit a dedicated line may have would be if you have a large power drop due to a long light gauge run, and a large high-power amp, that draws a lot of line power. This could cause voltage drops, but according to Pure Power, they even have this problem covered. If it does as promised, I don't see any benefit of changing anything before it. Link.

Don't forget, it's not a conditioner. Also, the high quality power the unit is supposed to give out will still get filtered even more through your amps power supply. These audio gear power supplies are designed to filter a lot of dirty power themselves.
I guess someone needs to tell Pure Power their site is wrong. A power cord that's the same gauge wire won't change any current an amp draws. Link.[http://www.purepoweraps.com/regen.htm]

Also, either my sight is going bad, or they misprinted this copy of the owners manual. Link.[http://www.purepoweraps.com/pdf/PurePower%20120V%20manual%20-%20Aug%2008.pdf]
They do recommend a dedicated 30 amp line for the model #3000. Being what it is capable of giving out what it does, that sure makes sense. Getting something for nothing would put it in the Perpetual Motion category. [http://www.purepoweraps.com/pdf/USprices.pdf]
Alonski, that would be in reference to the comment made stating they regenerate the power, not make it perfect. And it appears that some believe a regenerators output would be influenced by its input. Also, an upgraded power cord should be used before the regenerator. If the product is designed right, it wouldn't have any influence on it. The information from Pure Power states "so there is no opportunity for outside influences to introduce unwanted waveform distortions." That alone tells me their product is doing the job right. If another manufacturer says something like a power cord should be used before it, it must have a design problem IMO. If it changes with just a power cord (small influence) before it, how is it supposed to keep the noise from the dirty power (major influence) from getting through, and giving you true new pure power? So one company's manual does not work for all in this case. I would believe the info provided by Pure Power. I would not go by what the other company says you need for their product. Pure Power should know how their product works also. They designed it.
