RE: A question about power regenerators

I don't have the kind of technical knowledge you seek, so I'll just posture this rather ordinary finding. I have a solid state preamplifier with a stiff power supply. When I pull the power cord out of the IEC inlet, the sound continues to play until the power supply caps are discharged. The sonic signature of the preamplifier does not notably change during the time that the power supply caps are discharging, with no power cord at all connected to AC power. The energy storage reservoir capacitors of an audio component is just ordinary anecdotal evidence to ponder; I'm sure other AA Inmates can provide further comments about your particular application.
