Perhaps you should focus on what seems to be your underlying problem by using a power regenerator.

"I should mention that as I was suspecting that the problem came from power line disturbances, I have tried all sorts of conditioners and power generators - without any effect."

It's true that we don't know which models were tried, some would obviously have better isolation from the distortion on the power line than others, but it is difficult to filter out, may require both a good isolation transformer and power regenerator working in tandem, or better yet, a battery supply that is completely isolated from the power line.

  But perhaps not a regenerator like a PS Audio Powerplant.
  
  If he's still getting "bad" power using one of those, then perhaps his home/apartment wiring is the villain.
  - All of the AC motor speed controllers are power regenerators ... - slider 11:23:13 01/08/17 (1)
    That's how they work, they generate the AC motor drive using a crystal oscillator as the frequency source. It's just a question of how effective they are.

      As I said before, it would be helpful if the OP provided some details.
      
      Having "bad power" is generally not a good thing for any audio component.
