thoughts on nordost thor?

I have been looking at ac treatment for my system. I actually had a bid accepted on a PS audio p500 (regenerated ac for source and the incorporated ultimate outlet for the rest) but the unit became faulty before shipping and so the deal was void. One of the audio magazines recently eluded to an upcoming review of the Nordost Thor and that it was something special; it would revolutionize. I have not seen any formal reviews to this date, though, so am curious as to what everyone might think. Particularly compared to the PS audio powerplants. I realize that the powerplants regenerate the ac, etc , which is different that the THor, but in terms of the end result, what do you think?

I have just replaced two PS Audio 600s with 2 THORs. If you are considering a line conditioner and have reasonably reliable power lines, this is the final word. No noise, no limiting, works with all components (including big power amps). Noise floor is virtually undetectable.
Note: For best results, at least the THOR should have a high end power cord (preferable something like the Nordost Valhalla or Brahma) to achieve best results. The good news is that with any decent power cord you get great results. Expensive but worth it.
