speed stability


Does anyone know if using a device like a PS Audio power regenerator accomplishes the same speed stability goal as using the VPI SDS controller? I have a VPI Classic turntable and run it, along with the rest of my audio components (except the power amp), through the P5 Power Plant. Since one of the goals of the P5 is to deliver a nearly perfect 120 volts, is an SDS superfluous?

Thanks!

Thanks to everyone fir their input.

Dkarmeli: I had question about you comment regarding using electronics through a power regenerator. I originally purchased the PS Audio piece to protect the preamp, cd player, turntable, tuner, etc.

I knew it didn't have the ooomph to protect my Audio Research VT200, but I assumed the other components would be more stable as well as protected by the regenerator. Watching the scope on the PS Audio, I can see how much better the THD is as well as the voltage. But I had never heard that using such a device can be deleterious to the sound.

What is the reason for this? Thanks in advance.
