Review: EXACTPOWER EP15A Tweak


Category: Accessories

I just purchased the new ExactPower EP-15A AC Line Voltage Regulator from a Audiogon Seller " Chichiuno ".

The first thing I noticed when taking it out of the box was the build quality, all aluminum, and heavy. I pluged the EP-15A into the wall and all of my gear into the eight AC outlets on the back of the unit.

I turned the EP-15A on and played Lee Ritenour Rit's House, and I was amazed! It was as if I added another 50 watts to my Power Amp! The volume level had to be turned down from the normal listening position. The sound was smooth and rich. The sonic benefits from this unit are cleaner sound with no hum, and power, power, power! My Velodyne pumped out deeper bass, the Monitor Audio tweeters produced crisp high frequencies without sounding too bright, and the mid-range truly opened up with finer detail.

The EP-15A made a big difference in the sound of my system, but that's not all, the picture quality of my TV increased dramatically with brighter colors and sharper picture.

If you are looking for a cost effective way to give your system the boost it needs, try the ExactPower EP-15A. "You can't go wrong with ExactPower on".

i also use the EP-15A. when you first listen to your system with it, you notice a lack of background noise.
i dont know when you recieved your units, but exact power has improved the top cover for these units. i have the silver faced unit with the silver top. these units had a rounded screw head to hold it down. i wanted a black cover to match the silver / black theme of my system. when i recieved the new black cover, it was a heavier gauge metal, and the screws are now philips heads that are longer. you can feel how it draws the cover down tighter and has less noise when tapping on it. you cannot use the longer srews with the older top covers. they round out the holes on the new ones so the screws are now sitting flat, instead of above the cover. if you call for a new top cover at EXACT POWER, let them know you bought if from ANTHONY. they know who he is. it will help in getting a new lid at a very reasonable price. i think the new lid is worth the few dollars to improve the stiffness of the chasis.
