About the Audiophile APS The PurePower Audio Power Supply The Audiophile Audio Power Supply (APS) provides pure regenerated power for your sensitive home theater and audio equipment. This is accomplished through our double conversion technology. We convert the incoming AC power to produce a clean DC supply, then recreate a new, 60 Hz, 120 volt AC wave form from the DC. We make sure that your system gets the power it was designed for and your amplifiers get the current they need for top performance.
