PUREPOWER 2000 Explosion!
Well this is very annoying.
I come home and notice my PurePower2000 is not on. Check the plugs etc everything seems okay. Switch off the gear connected to it (preamp, tt, cdp, sooloos). Hit the power switch to turn it on and POW! something literally explodes inside it dislodging something. You can feel and hear the item crash around inside the chassis. Followed by white smoke Getting picked up today by the dealer but my confidence is severely dented. I dread to think what could have happened if everything was still on. Boom, there goes 5557 cds. Time to do another back up! howie |

Damn, and those suckers have had my interest. This definitively throws up a caution flag.
I think I'll stick with my furman's.

Good choice, Furman's are very reliable, and I wouldn't be suprised if they sound better than the PPP

Howie.......I hope your dealer will stand behind your purchase and provide you with a new unit. There is no way I would accept that unit back.
PurePower President's name is Damian Janzen, and can be contacted directly here: Damian@PurePowerAPS.com I am sure he would be interested to hear about your issue. You may want to send him a link to this thread.
