Introduction

Purify, protect, regulate, and rebuild unrestricted new power from old with the P15, our second-most powerful AC regenerator. The DirectStream P15 PowerPlant is the gold standard for safety, reliability, and high-performance AC regeneration. It improves micro and macro dynamics, audio purity, instrumental separation, and soundstage width and depth, while lowering background noise for any connected equipment. From medium- to large-power amplifiers to the smallest source components, the P15 will work magic on your system’s performance—delivering far better dynamics, tighter bass, and a bigger, more open soundstage than any passive conditioner.

Design

  • Ultra-Low-Impedance Analog Power Amplifier: Delivers clean, high-current AC regeneration.
  • Pure DSD FPGA-Based Sine-Wave Generator: Produces a perfect analog waveform from incoming mains.
  • Five Separate Regenerated Zones: Ten US outlets (or nine EU/AU/GR/UK outlets) each powered by thick copper busbars to ensure equal, distortion-free delivery.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction: ¼″ copper busbars, passively cooled chassis, and field-upgradeable electronics for long-term reliability.

Application

With a maximum continuous output of 1,500 VA (and 3,600 VA peak), the P15 regenerates steady, regulated AC that’s immune to your equipment’s power demands. Power your sources, preamps, and amplifiers from its outlets to reveal new voices, harmonics, and a renewed sense of musicality. As the gold standard in AC regeneration, the P15 delivers consistent performance and rock-solid protection every time you listen.

Technology Overview

  • Next-Generation Regeneration: Actively rebuilds AC using amplifier-style components to create perfect, distortion-free power.
  • Low Output Impedance (0.008 Ω): Ensures even the hungriest amplifiers never starve for current, unlike passive conditioners (~0.4 Ω).
  • MultiWave Mode: Extends peak charging time of the sine wave for greater energy storage and lower ripple, yielding a more musical soundstage.
  • Integrated Monitoring & Control: 7″ full-color touchscreen displays incoming/outgoing distortion, improvement levels, and power consumption. Adjust turn-on/off sequences, output voltage, individual zone switching, and view built-in oscilloscope or THD analyzer.
  • Comprehensive Protection: Input is clamped against surges and spikes, while the fully regulated output guards against over- and under-voltage conditions.
