” When the PerfectWave P10 Power Plant was feeding my entire system, based on DeVore Fidelity The Nine loudspeakers and including a Leben CS-600 amplifier and analog and digital sources, I experienced exceptional musical moments more often, finding myself sitting up and taking notice of some musical detail. Streaming the Tidal playlist “Wildwood Flower: Best New Folk and Americana” at CD resolution, I was startled by the creaminess of Dori Freeman’s voice in “Where I Stood,” from her eponymous first album (CD, Free Dirt DIRTCD 0074). The percussiveness of Kristin Fossheim’s fortepiano was visceral in the first movement of Beethoven’s Sonata for Cello and Piano 2 in G, Op.5 No.2, and Bjørn Solum’s cello had a pleasant buzz (24-bit/96kHz download, 2L 79). When, on a low note (as at 2:32), the cello’s body resonated strongly, the room shook; could this be the “better bass” that PS Audio says on its website that I should expect? Of course, the P10 doesn’t get all the credit—it’s on the recording, and it takes a whole system to reproduce it—but it was less impressive with my system plugged straight into the wall.
