这两天收到我发出的PSAUDIO
P10世界顶级电处的3位我的私人音响微信群(13917564051)会员,请你们跟着我的这篇文章进行操作,这篇文章,是我特意为你们3位尊贵的我亲爱的会员而写的。同时恭喜你们得到了世界上最强大的第一顶级HIEND电源处理再生电源!我亲手带你们从0开始使用世界顶级1500瓦再生电源PSAUDIO P10。
先重点翻译英文说明书里的重点细节与使用方法,最后谈听感与我的使用经验
The PS Audio Power Plant 10 is an actively cooled component that requires adequate ventilation
P10需要有足够的空间进行散热,请注意四周与顶部留出充足空间。
The Power Plant 10 is a state-of-the-art AC regenerator
that regulates and regenerates the AC
line voltage, producing clean, low distortion AC
power.
P10是hiend再生电源,重新发出交流电,提供纯净的,低失真的交流电。
The Power Plant 10, also known as the
P10, will provide up to 1500VA of pure, regulated AC power
regardless of the condition of your
home’s power.
不管你家的电怎样,P10都能带给你1500VA的纯净再生交流电,这对你的音响器材而言,非常重要。
Clean, regulated AC is essential to optimize the
performance of your connected
equipment.
Dynamics Never Restricted
动态永不会受到限制
The Power Plant 10 will not restrict the dynamics nor the
soundstage in your high-end system
and will, in fact, provide superior levels of performance in micro
and macro dynamics.
P10不会让动态收到损失,不会让声场受到影响,提供HIEND音响设备超级的微动态与大动态。
In addition,
the P10 will maintain the harmonic integrity of your audio
equipment while increasing color
saturation and lowering video noise in video
equipment.
此外,P10保证了音乐中泛音的完整,以及让视频中的颜色变得更为饱满,降低杂讯。
Built to the Highest Standards
PS PerfectWave power products are built to the highest standards,
both internally and externally,
in Boulder Colorado. Every effort has been made to provide the
highest quality performance and
reliability possible. Every PerfectWave Power Plant is hand built,
tested and then burned in to
make sure what you receive is ready to go and will provide years of
trouble free service.
P10是以最高标准进行设计制造,不论外在还是内在。在美国科罗拉多州,以手工进行制造与检验,可以安心长久使用。
Wattage vs. VA (Volt-Amps)
All Power
Plant 10’s labeled EX, GR, or UK can output a continuous load of up
to 1500 Volt-Amps of pure,
regulated AC, with peak momentary output capabilities of up to 1750
Volt-Amps.
220-230伏特的P10背面会标着EX(中国地区),GR(德国),UK(英国),他可以连接1500VA的HIFI器材,峰值可以支持到1750VA。
long, heavy gauge shielded power cable between the AC receptacle in
the wall and the Power
Plant. This is better than long individual power cables between the
connected components and
the Power Plant 10.
建议用粗线径的屏蔽结构的电源线连接P10与墙壁插座,尽量不要将P10插在排插拖线板上,效果不如直接将P10连上墙
Vibration
The Power Plant 10 can benefit from aftermarket isolation devices
such as cones, spikes and
Sorbothane pads.
你可以为P10配避震钉垫,板子,避震会有一定作用。
Once you have chosen the
location for the Power Plant 10 you can use the
supplied AC power cord to connect to the wall receptacle, or you
can use an aftermarket power
cord and/or receptacle.
你可以为P10选配粗线径,大电流的电源线。
Use the heaviest gauge shielded AC power cable you can to connect a
Power Plant 10 to its AC
source. The heavier the gauge used, the less the chance for
restricted dynamics in both audio
and video systems. Once the Power Plant 10 has been connected to an
AC source it is time to
connect your equipment (with the P10 powered
down).
使用你能买到的最粗线径的屏蔽设计的电源线,线径越粗,动态损失约小。在关闭电源的状态下,连接你的器材,连接完后,再打开P10背后的开关。
分组插入你的器材,举例如下:
For
instance, you can group digital equipment together on a single zone
and multiple analog sources
on another zone. You should not mix digital, video or analog
equipment on the same zone if
possible. Digital equipment would be a DVD player, CD player, DAC,
computer, TIVO, or satellite
receiver. Video equipment would be a VCR, TV or computer monitor.
Analog examples would
be a power amp, preamp, projector, turntable, or any type of tube
equipment.
背后有五组插座,你可以将数码器材插在同一个插座上,将模拟器材插在另一个插座上,尽量不要让数码与模拟插在一个插座上。这里的数码器材指的是DVD,CD机,DAC解码器,电脑等。模拟器材指的是功放、前后级、LP唱机等。
Zones D and E on the Power Plant 10 is marked “HC” for High
Current. This zone is identical
to Zones A, B, and C in terms of the quality of regenerated,
regulated AC output, however it
also enjoys the benefits of an in-rush limiter. When capacitors or
tubes are powered down for
extended periods, they drain of their capacitance. Upon powering
these devices up, they can
demand a lot of current to both turn the unit on and to reintroduce
this capacitance. The result
in one’s home can, with very high-wattage-draw devices, go so far
as to trip the circuit breaker
in the residence. An in-rush limiter, such as the one found on
Zones D and E of your Power
Plant 10, slows the pace of initial AC output. A more gradual rise
in output voltage allows the
connected device to power up fully while not over-taxing either the
P10 nor the mains power.
D与E两档标着HC,HIGH CURRENT,专门用来连接功放等大功率设备。设有缓冲保护,能保护功放与P10自身在功放或后级开关机时的电流冲击。这两组的声音与ABC三组完全一样。起到保护功放的电容或电子管的所用。在功放开机时,提供缓和的升压。
Once everything is connected you can flip the back panel power
switch to power up the unit. The
P10 will initialize for several seconds before entering the home
page. All zones exhibiting green
receptacle icons will be outputting regenerated AC to connected
components. Please feel free to
examine the “Quick Start Guide” which was included in paper-copy
with your Power Plant 10
打开机器背后的开关,机器会运行程序后进入主菜单。绿色的插头标记表示已经导通。
The illuminated frontpanel
display is touch-activated. By touching any of the output
receptacle icons, one can toggle
that zone on & off. Upon turning off, the output receptacle
icon will turn red. Below these output
receptacle icons one will find selector icons for Scope, Setup,
Waveform, and Clean.
前面板是触摸式的,触摸插头的标记可以开启与关闭该组输出。关闭时,呈现出红颜色。注意,如果呈现出橙色的标记,说明输出达到了P10能承受的90%以上的功率。一旦输出到100%,会转为红色,作为警告。如果超过100%负荷,P10会自动关闭。
选择主菜单下方的SCOPE图标后,会出如下现波形图,代表没有经过P10处理前的电,按下下方的右箭头,代表经过P10处理后的波形图。你会发现波形变得顺滑,形状理想的正玄波。这就是告诉你P10所做的,他让交流电变得接近完美。
再按一次下方的右箭头,会叠加处理前后的波形,让你直观地看到修正前后的波形。
最后一次按下右箭头,你会看到下图STATUS状态图,对当前输入电压,输出电压,功率输出,负载程度,输出电流大小,频率进行显示。THD IN是输入电的失真,THD OUT是处理后的失真率。
按下主菜单下方的SET UP触摸键,会出现下面的SET UP菜单
可以进行输出电压的自由调节,中国的话220--230随便你喜好。
Low
distortion and high regulation. If
the Power Plant 10 is being used in
an area with relatively consistent,
relatively accurate input AC, then it is
recommended that the Low Distortion selection be made. This will
focus the Power Plant 10’s
efforts on decreasing output THD as much as possible. If the P10 is
being used in an area with
erratic input voltage, or input voltage that is consistently higher
or lower than the level 120V or
240V (depending on region), it is suggested that the High
Regulation selection is made. This
will focus the Power Plant 10’s efforts more closely on regulating
the output voltage to a nominal
output, and on this setting you may notice the output THD climb
slightly higher.
以下非常重要:
在模式方面,有两种,一种是Low distortion 低失真,另一种是 high regulation高处理。如果你家的电不是太糟糕,则建议选择Low distortion 低失真,可以得到更好的声音,因此此时,P10将会尽力处理THD失真。如果你家的电很糟糕,电压很不稳定,很高或很低,或起伏不定,则建议选择high regulation高处理,P10会重点调整电压的稳定,在这种情况下,你会发现THD失真会比Low distortion 低失真模式稍高。
As general guidelines, tube equipment and electrostatic speakers
will benefit from the High
Regulation setting, whereas solid state amplifiers and video
equipment will benefit from the Low
Distortion setting. In the incoming AC is within 5V of the
base-line output, either mode will offer
great performance. Outside of five volts, the user can maintain
voltage regulation at the slight
expense of THD control with High Regulation, or can maintain THD
control at the slight expense
of voltage regulation using Low Distortion.
Each of the five Zones (labeled A, B, C, D, and E) can be
independently controlled for sequenced
power-cycling combinations.
电子管设备与静电耳机,静电喇叭建议选择high regulation高处理模式。因为稳定的电压对他们而言更重要。晶体管放大器与视频设备建议选择Low distortion 低失真模式

按下主菜单下方第三个按键,WAVE FORM触摸键,P10会在两种波形中作转换。其中,MULTIWAVE模式能延长正弦波到达波峰的时间。相当于增加了大型的变压器或更多的电容提供能量给所接驳的电器,用户可以尝试看看。

按下主菜单下方最后一个按键clean,起到消磁的作用,请确保接上去的机器都在开启的状态,但是不需要播放音乐的状态。
Fuse: The Power Plant 10, for all units marked US and JP, takes a 5 amp, 250 volt, 5mm/20mm
Slow-Blow fuse. For all units marked EX, GR, UK, and AU, the Power Plant 10 takes a 3 amp,
250 volt, 5mm/20mm Slow-Blow fuse
保险丝:
中国地区,请选用3安培20mm慢融的规格
机器背后设有RESET复位键,当机器超过负荷后,机器会自动关机,此时需要移除超负荷的器材,再按下RESET即可。在中国地区,总消耗达到10安培就会断开电路。

一耳朵,就能感受到丰富的细节呈显出自然的姿态。美国器材,做到顶级后,是不会有粗放的感觉的。聆听古典乐,格外能够感受到这点,各种乐器具有清晰的轮廓与丰富的泛音,不会生硬,不会刮耳朵,细节没有被掩盖与抵消,因此,像真度非常高,尤其注意到,小提琴擦弦时微动态清晰自然,和音润泽而活生,做到了顶级的器材,完全没有夸张与炫耀,而是面面俱到,强弱对比鲜明,而强弱的转换又有着无比丰富的过渡细节,因此音乐流畅无比。声场中的细节在没有用P10前,会有空旷或不够连绵的感觉,用了P10后,声场中的细节完整了很多,感觉人数完整了,不会觉得空旷或者有空隙,原来10个位置,13579有人,24678空着,很难受,现在1-10号坐满人,眼前的景象可想而知非常完整。而且比没有用P10时,左右宽度,上下高度都有明显提升。比起不用P10前,明显声音的密度清晰度更高,更自然,更真实。
存在感很强,又很弱。
首先,存在感很弱,本身没有音染,因此根本听不出在用电处,我听到的,是完全逼真的音乐。
但是,存在感又很强,因为,拿掉P10后,音乐一下子虚弱了,模糊了,情感减弱了,没法听了。
绝对的真实,那就是模拟味。模拟味不是模糊,模拟味是将等身大的场景与歌者带到你的面前,P10做到了。无尽的纯净能量,带来无尽逼真的现场
不要在阿猫阿狗的电处里徘徊了,一句话,攒钱,上PSAUDIO P10世界第一再生电源,你绝不会后悔。
P10令整个系统的声音变得无限自然,没有任何突兀或者生硬,音乐呈现出顶级的模拟味道,对层次的交代极为自然,每个乐器以及乐器间的泛音交织具有完美的立体感。在爆棚时,如火箭炮一样交待出低音丰富的细节与强悍的动力,高品质的低音源源不断从喇叭涌现出来,这种低频表现,当拿掉P10之后,荡然无存!
可以说,P10让系统全方位明显提升,以至于拿掉P10后,音乐虚假了很多,无法继续聆听。
可以断言,P10再生电源是世界最佳电处之一,属于不可或缺的具有重要地位的器材。没有任何负面影响,声音方方面面全部正面大幅度提升,远远比柏林之声948电处提升大的多得多!是带听者进入音乐本质的HIEND电处最高峰!
