Obviously Amir didn’t test this thing with a special PS audio power cable
Results would have been vastly different

Yes, AC mains voltage fluctuations will affect the regen voltage output because it uses a linear supply. If the AC mains voltage goes up then the output of the regen will go up slightly and vice versa.Will it maintain voltage with fluctuation? My area 230V can swing up to 243V
Never use this, but it was good selling product as maintain voltage is their selling point. At least, it was how it market in my country.Yes, AC mains voltage fluctuations will affect the regen voltage output because it uses a linear supply.

Not to disagree with you, but these are things you buy an actual UPS for. Caps on the DC rail can only do so much. You can get a nice Eaton 9155 double-conversion unit, retail, for around this price and it'll run rings around this thing for power output, even with the mains off. Is it better for THD? I don't know.

If it uses a class B design and a linear supply they must have a micro processor or feedback controlling the output voltage?Huh?
The entire purpose of an amplifier driven regenerator is to regulate the output voltage, among other things.
especially my toaster. the toaster from hell.1000W won't even run your toaster well.
But food may indeed taste better when served on warm plates. But maybe DC is better for that application.
After analysing all the data,PS = PoS?
I agree.
That doesn't change the fact that the PS Audio Powerplant 12 was not tested to determine what it actually does. The testing was set up to show what it doesn't do.
About the vote: i understand the one "Great" vote, it's trolling, fine. But who and why voted for the "Not terrible" option? How on the earth can something be "Not terrible" for doing nothing (or making things slightly worse) for $5,500 ?
