PS Audio P500 Yes? -No?


Anyone have experience they can share on the latest version PS Audio P500? This is the unit w/ MMWII, the new servo system, Auto Wave, and System Clean. Sounds like I should have one but it all seems like a bit of an overpromise. I know my gear and electrical matters at my home have an impact. But I am sure grateful for any informed opinions you all might have. Thanks.

I had the P600 - in my new home with dedicated power, I decided I didn't need it on my tube amp - straight to wall was best. I also traded my tube amp for a digital one (NuForce 9s) and found it didn't help at all.

The PPs run hot and eat power, FWIW.

On the tube amp (in my old house) it provided quite a variety of sounds depending on selected setting - it's a bit like adding dynamics. More vivid somehow. This was with MWII. I liked it there.

To summarize - it depends on your amp and tastes.
