PSAudio P15 Power Regenerator – DirectStream Power Plant 15

Colour is Silver - front & corners, with black lid & rear face. Comes with the Original box and packaging, the Remote control and Owners reference manual. Australian dealer purchased in March 2019. Display Screen has been turned off when not viewing to ensure a long life. All pics are of the actual unit.

Comments by seller Anthony1:

- This is a smart time to buy the P15 as the main depreciation has already occurred.

- The P15 will absolutely suit nearly all users, with its height (215mm) and weight (33kg) being manageable to fit a lot of HiFi racks (compared to the giant P20’s height (279mm) & (43.5kg)).

- Has a high-quality display screen to scroll through and see things like oscilloscope, and actual improvements etc. 

The P series regenerators have lots of great features not found in other brands:
- Indicates how much power and current your using in real time, say at idle VS turning the volume up to see a rise due to power amp consumption.

- As well as monitoring incoming Voltage, you can set your own Voltage level to supply your equipment, for example by setting anywhere between a typical 230 to 240V (see pic below).

- Gives significant user control when starting up the P15, or shutting down the P15 – one of the most useful features is you can individually set a time delay interval for when each of the 5 main top outlets switch ON, and also another a time interval for switching OFF each 5 main outlets. This feature is very applicable to stereo power amps, especially mono blocks and preamps so you can in an orderly way avoid surges and spikes.

- When powered up, it’s easy with a press of the front panel control, to quickly turn off say just one or two power outlet sockets, so for example to safely swap in another power cable to your equipment, change equipment, or to turn off outlet(s) you’re not using.

- Big sound improvement compared to only wall outlets.

For Power Plant owners reading this advert, I have a hint. Instead of having a preamp and power amp next to each other in the ‘high current on start-up’ zones D&E, it’s better I found to move the preamp a few outlets away. I learnt this from Nordost’s QBase-10 Reference approach.
