Anyone has experience with Accuphase PS-510 ?

[TOGA]

I am interested in this Voltage Regulator hoping it might help extend
tubes life in my ARC pre amp.
I have voltage sag, brown-out quite often and My ARC preamp tubes gone
bad in 1100 hours only.
Now I use Transparent PIR but it can't regulate voltage.

TOGA.......The Accuphase PS-510 is a good looking power supply, but it isn't capable of very much load, only 510VA. If you plan to power only the preamp and perhaps a source it will work, but it is limited in output power. There is no backup battery, so it won't be much help in brownouts.

You may want to look at the PurePower 1050 which deliver 1500VA (1050 watts) with battery backup.

My total load is around 300 VA. Pre and CD only.
I like concept of accuphase more than pure power because it is not a source of
Severe harmonics distortion. Most inverter based products put noise back into ac line.
But not quite sure about sonic result on Accuphase.

I bought RSA Maxim and Dmitri instead. I really like the improvement I got by using
RSA.
