Thumbs up PPP Has Arrived

Santa came early to ol' Wabo's house. He must have heard about the impending snow storm heading our way and wanted to deliver this brand new PS Audio Power Plant Premier to me.

This thing is a beast, weighing more than some receivers! I can't wait to get this all hooked up... hopefully tonight!

New gear is always fun. The anticipation of what it will sound like in your system keeps everyone interested. Let's see where you fall on the PPP scale.

Congrats on the new PPP

I am starting to think that I am the only one here who didn't get any new gear fro Xmas...

Can't wait to hear what the PP does for your system.

Keep us posted.

Thanks guys!

I finally got the kids to bed (trouble with my oldest sons fresh water fish tank. Whew, it's always something.) Now I'm ready to contort myself into some rather painful positions and hook this bad-boy up!

A couple of quick questions for the PPP pros: Do you guys leave it 'always on' or 'switched?' Also, is it recommended to use Multiwave? And lastly, I recall reading in one of Dan's posts about a screw on the bottom of the unit. Do I need to mess with that?

Muchas gracias!

Jeff.......I have both of my PPP's set to always on. You don't want the outlet that the Denon Pre/pro is plugged into to turn off because your Denon remote control will no longer work to energize the system. I let the power control triggers turn off the individual components.

Once you have the PPP up and running, try MultiWave to see if there is an audible difference, and whether you like it.

The screw on the bottom adjusts the output voltage to all the receptacles on the PPP's rear panel. Adjust only if you do not have exactly 120 volts.
