I don't know the answer to your question but I do know that the answer can vary for each individual person's system, power set up in your home, and the AC power in your area and entering your home.
Does an Audioquest Niagra 1200 limit amplifier dynamics?
Hi, I have a Belles 150A Reference amp driving Vandersteen 2E sig speakers, which I don't play loud at all. I currently have everything else plugged into a Shunyata Hydra 6, but felt it limited the amp's dynamics, so it's plugged directly into the dedicated line outlet. Would an Audioquest Niagra 1200 do better?

@audiotroy You answered a different question than the one I asked. I asked about how a consumer could measure the existing noise on their home line and you posted that you had tested many conditioners and have dedicated lines. You cited me in your post and then posted something tangential -- which also helps you sell power conditioners. My question asks how one can test if they need to buy anything at all. To put it another way, your post adds "noise" to this conversation. |
@hilde45 my PS Audio P10 would show me the oscilloscope on its screen to show how much distortion was on the line. I had a low noise, but it still made my system sound cleaner. I moved to a Shunyata Denali and it's even better, but I did lose the oscilloscope which was always fun to check out what harm fans, air conditioners and vacuuming did to the line. |
