I've got the Summertime Blues. Power conditioner necessary?

I agree that one of the better Furman's will help the situation by cleaning up the electrical signal and providing steady voltage. I have a Furman Elite and it works well. Next to it sits an Audioquest 7000 which works very well but very expensive.  In your case the Furman is probably the better choice. Talk to Crutchfield. They sell Furmans and know what they are talking about.

I have Furman units (model unknown) but notice that the readout sometimes goes into a low voltage situation, which it is unable to regulate. Have been seriously considering a PS regenerator unit, PS P10 (at least somewhat affordable since the P20 was introduced).

Anyone running these? Impressions?

If your voltage is that low, I’d suggest determining the root cause of the problem. If you are in the U.S., your utility is regulated by the state, which sets the minimum performance standards under the tariff. That’s typically around 114VAC. A good start would be to measure the AC voltage at your service entrance, or close to it inside the breaker panel. That would rule out any issue between the service panel and your wall outlet.

I’ve actually had this experience, and frankly utilities are not always especially responsive to low voltage issues. But it’s worth being persistent.

Of course, it’s also possible that there’s something wrong with your Furman unit. You might be able to confirm that by checking voltage at the same outlet you’re using for the Furman.

No, I know home system is fine, I have two isolated 20a runs for the system. By low, I am taking about only 114-116vac. I have understood that the re-generators are capable of of making up short term voltage drops to keep input vac stable 

It looks like Udog has jumped the fence and is on the run!
