PSE Studio V acquisition


A gentleman I know collects a lot of different items and never uses many of them.  This is what happened when he bought a new pair of PSE Studio V monoblocks from Mr. Kleinfelter some years ago and kept them in storage.  This particular pair was one of the last - or maybe the last - pair that was made, and has a number of upgraded components inside, as well as piano black sides instead of the wooden ones.  Basically they’re new old stock.  Well I got them yesterday and they replaced my Aragon 4004 amp.  I listened to them for about 6 or 7 hours, and so far am very happy with them.  The music seems to be a bit more open than with my previous amplifier and the voices appear more vibrant to me.  I’m looking forward to more listening and having the PSE’s break in further.  Now I just need to get some very short bi-wired speaker cables.  Other equipment I’m using with these includes an Audible Illusions Modulus 3B, T+A Criterion 300 speakers, and various sources.

Thanks. I do have a slight hum as a result of the ground plugs on the ac cords, so will probably attach 3 prong to 2 prong adapters. I had to do that with my last couple amps as well.

i appreciate your input. Can you tell me what I should do to correct the problem?  The hum really isn’t very loud, and once music starts playing I can’t hear it at all.  But knowing it’s there bugs me.
