PowerPlant 15

PowerPlant 15

Purify, protect, regulate, and rebuild unrestricted new power from old with the P15, our second most powerful AC regenerator.
The DirectStream P15 Power Plant is the gold standard for safety, reliability, and high-performance AC power regeneration. The P15 improves micro and macro dynamics, audio purity, instrumental separation, soundstage width and depth, and lowers background noise for any connected equipment. From medium to large power amplifiers to the smallest pieces of source equipment, the P15 will work magic on your system’s performance. Don’t starve your music or risk damaging your equipment. A P15 gives you greatly improved performance and safety from just plugging into the wall socket and far better dynamics, bass and a much bigger, open soundstage than any power conditioner on the market.

  • Design

    The P15 features an ultra-low impedance analog power amplifier, FPGA based sine wave generator based on pure, clean, analog DSD (PCM), 10 outlets (US version) across 5 separate regenerated zones, and 1/4" thick copper busbars that deliver regenerated power to each receptacle. Through regeneration, the P15 creates a completely new AC waveform that adds missing energy back onto the power line to correct for serious issues, su

  • Application

    With a maximum output of 1500 watts, the P15 regenerates steady, regulated, pure AC that is unaffected by your equipment's demands for power. Powering your system from the outlets of the P15 will reveal new voices, new harmonics, and a renewed sense of musicality. As the gold standard for safety, reliability, and high-performace AC power regeneration, the P15 will ensure you receive the same great performance every time you listen and provide a firm foundation for your system.

Technology

The DirectStream Power Plant 15 is the next generation of AC power regeneration. It has 5 separate regenerated zones, buss bar delivery system, and 1500 watts of pure regenerated power. From medium to large power amplifiers to the smallest pieces of source equipment, the P15 will work magic on your system’s performance. Expect far better micro and macro dynamics as well as a cleaner, lower noise background. Power regeneration uses active components, like those found in large, powerful audio amplifiers, to rebuild the AC power and produce clean, clear, distortion-free, regulated AC to the equipment. The results are dramatic: unrestrained dynamics even under the loudest passages, an open, wide soundstage that does not collapse with volume and a naturalness to the music that is remarkable. The 7-inch, full color display on the front panel of the P15 allows you to measure distortion, both incoming and outgoing, improvement levels, and power consumption. You can also adjust your settings, such as the turn on/off sequence and the output voltage, as well as turn individual zones on or off, and measure the power quality with either the built-in oscilloscope or the THD analyzer.

  • Jeff Dorgay, Tone Audio

    I was shocked at how many albums in the junk bin became much more enjoyable. The amount of low level detail revealed by clean power is incredible. That alone is worth the price asked of the P15. Imagine getting another thousand LPs for free that you now love. What's that worth to you

  • Greg Petan, Positive Feedback

    Living in downtown NYC, the juice that flows from my outlets varies literally from hour to hour. Voltage spikes and sags have been measured with deviations that vary from moderate to, "That can't be right." [With my demanding Class A amps] I needed two P20s, along with the P15 to handle all the other components' power needs. The effect of all this effort to deliver clean AC power was not subtle. Every aspect of the sound is touched, elevated, and refined. Everything we seek in great sound

    P20 further improved crispness, expression, and clarity. At this point, the raw power was unlistenable, making the system sound confused, blurred, rough, and shouty
