Help on power conditioner upgrade

Upon further reflection you might want to stick with what you have. You are getting regenerated & balanced power.I have yet to install anything before my amp that I was happy with. The best bang for buck would be to have a dedicated 20amp circut installed. Use 10 guage wire & a hospital grade outlet. If you don't have one already get a good powercord for your amp.P.S. Audio lab cables are very reasonble & bring out the best in most amps but there is also a host of alternatives.doing all the above will cost you less than half of what you are considering & you amp will show you it's appreciation.

Hello Kira! I have lived with all 3 units for a long time in my various systems, and found that the Hydra seems to do the best job all around. The Equi=Tech sounds great on all components except with the amps. Tube amps loose a LOT of dynamics and drive when plugged in to it. The Equi=Tech is very well built and stable as well as efficient. The PS Audio 300 sounds nice as well on front end components, but most amps are out of the question. It is wastes a lot of energy as heat, an does some strange things with certain components. I have had reliability troubles with it and so have others I have known.
The Hydra sounds fantastic, and is completely reliable. I have all of my components plugged into it including amps.
It wastes no energy, and will last forever. It does not limit dynamics with amps I have run on it, and for some reason, it gives me a wider and deeper soundstage than the other two mentioned.
It is almost shocking just how bad my system sounds without a good power conditioner to clean things up. Any of the three will make a significant change for the better, so be sure not to do without!

I only have experience with the Equi=Tech (Q2). I'm very happy with mine. I use it with a tube system.

If you really want something special, which will upgrade your system, there's the Burmester 958, which will take your entire system, including two big monoblocks. I love what it does, and if it has any downside whatsoever, I can't hear it. But boy, is it pricey!

Tice Power Block IIIC- George Tice's statement product (transformerless) that has a separate 'high-power' section providing up to 2400w (only if you order the HP version- 1800 otherwise). Has 5 sparate circuits completely isolated from each other, and it even uses 2 power cords! Very cool piece, I have been using it and very happy- even plug my monster Theta Dreadnaught amp into the high-power section with no sonic degaradation or dynamic limitations- only benefits, including quieter noise floor and increased sense of 'presence'.
