Unboxing PS Audio P5

[Xuxa]

I think the logging may be possible. It is IP based & has an Ethernet port. So may be some syslog software....

I can access it from the IP address but there is only a limited amount of information there. I'll look into it. Thanks for the idea

Thank you Jerome !

It was a complete surprise but I look at it like an opportunity. Plus since my current cable are homemade, it's easy for me to switch to US plugs.

Thank you Simon. I'll provide feedback once I get everything plugged.

I'm really enjoying my system and the improvement is very noticeable right out of the box.

Found it! Actually you have to register the product and you can control it over the web.

That's pretty nifty as you can set alerts or program time for it to turn on or off (i.e. I can turn it on when I leave the office so when I get home, the amp will be warm and ready to play).

The voltage has been moving between 233V and 239V, THD between 1% and 1.5%.

Georges,

Thanks for sharing your experience with unboxing and initial listening impressions with your PS Audio P5 power conditioner. I have a pair of Power Plant Premier conditioners powering my system, each on a dedicated 20 amp line. I agree with you, from the first note I was impressed with this conditioner. Fast forward several years later and I now sit here and wonder if my system would be further enhanced by replacing my PPP with a pair of P5 conditioners. Reading about your experience and seeing the pictures especially the sine wave pics and ability to log in remotely ... It's all very tempting. You have added another component to my 'must hear' list. Maybe I will take advantage of PS Audio's 30 day money back offer.

Thank you

If you do that, you won't be returning them

It's a trap but such a nice one

Here are some screenshot from the remote tool.

So you can see the control for the plugs. You can remotely turn them on or off or just check their status. You can schedule when they go on.
Not shown here but you can also select a sequence for them to go on or off. I've set them up so that the pre-amp starts before the amps, but the amps turn off before the preamp...



Then you have the performance screen where you can see what the P5 is doing. Can you see how the voltage is moving ? You can have swings of more than 2 or 3V. You also have the THD and you can see that it's almost none existent now

Wow, great pictures and report. Thank you.
