It is far from being clear to me how Kingwa's design works. He calling the second stage transformers the regeneration ones. What does the first transformer do?
The large transformer drives a DC linear power supply that then feeds the input to the AC regenerator circuits. The regenerated 50Hz sinusoidal waveform drives the three transformers to eventually make DC at the board level. So essentially an AC-DC-AC-DC supply.
Does this makes sense? Yes, in many ways. Isolates the AC input power by several layers. Purity of the regenerated 50Hz waveform can be controlled. Hopefully this all means quieter DC power.
