* Note about power consumption:

The  P1000  is  capable  of  delivering  up  to  1000  watts  into 
a  reactive  load  and  up  to  700  watts  into  a  resistive  load. 
Examples of a reactive load are: most solid state equipment 
and video products. An example of a resistive load is: tube 
based equipment. 

Quick Start Guide

1.

  Place  the  P1000  in  a  rack  or  on  a  shelf  in 

the  audio/video  system.  If  placed  on  carpet  it 
is  necessary  to  use  isolation  or  accessory  feet 
to  elevate  it  above  the  carpet  1  inch.  Failure  to 
do so could compromise the power regeneration 
capabilities of the P1000.

2. 

Connect audio/video equipment to the P1000. 

There are five electrically isolated duplex recep-
tacles  on  the  P1000,  which  are  oriented  verti-
cally. 

For  optimum  performance,  we  recommend  that 
equipment  with  medium  wattage  power  require-
ments  be  plugged  into  the  “Regenerated  AC” 
receptacles (2-ch preamps, AV processors, DVD/
CD players, Satellite receivers, PVR’s, D to A con-
verters, low power solid state amplifiers, etc). 

Equipment  with  extremely  high  wattage  power 
requirements should be plugged into the “Filtered 
AC” receptacles (direct view TVs, plasma or pro-
jection displays, multi-channel, tube or high pow-
ered amplifiers).

3. 

Plug the P1000 into a power source such as a 

wall outlet. Use the supplied AC power cable, or 
an  aftermarket  power  cable.  We  would  strongly 
urge the use of an xStream Power Cable.

4.

 Turn on the P1000 by pressing the power but-

ton located on the center of the front panel. The 
Regenerated  AC  zone  will  become  active.  The 
Filtered  AC  zone  immediately  becomes  active 
when the P1000 is plugged into a live outlet.

5. 

If desired, select a MultiWave II setting or allow 

AutoWave  to  adapt  to  the  power  needs  of  your 
system using the front panel controls.

Default settings

The P1000 comes from the factory with standard 
default  settings  that  should  work  well  for  most 
situations.  The  type  of  power  delivery  can  be 
configured  to  achieve  the  optimal  performance 
for any system.
