| Threshold Stasis 2...Worth a rebuild??? I owned a Stasis 2. Looking back after what I paid for the power amp used and the rebuild cost, I could have bought a much newer better sounding Pass labs power amp. | |
| 12 inch Graham Phantom Yes longer indeed, but just on one end. | |
| Purepower 2000 vs PS audio PPP Had the PS Audio PPP. Now own and prefer Purepower 2000's. They solved all my poor quality A/C power problems. | |
| APS Pure Power A/C Regenerators My 2000's sound smooth and sweet at the high frequencies, not zippy or anyway sharp. They respond very well to air isolation platforms and cone footers. Along with after market power cords. | |

| APS Pure Power A/C Regenerators Barrelchief sent you a PM. I am running two 2000's one on each channel at only 28% power usage, my mono block amps and front end gear. Lots of power reserve for each channel. | |
| APS Pure Power A/C Regenerators I purchased two APS Pure Power 2000's. Also I have two 20 amp dedicated AC power lines installed and used 10awg wire. The outlets are R1 Oyade's. The effect on the sound is quite spectacular. The quality of the incoming AC power is very bad and va... | |
| Pass Labs X250.5 or X350.5 ? Owned both, X350.5 just sounds nicer. More fuller bodied sound. | |
| Additional armwand for Graham Phantom? Some of the first Phantoms had poor side to side clearances in the arm wand connector. Phantom II's solved that problem. | |
