Power Chords and Line Conditioning

Martice- Your question is a quite dependent on the quality of your A/C. I've lived with the PS 300 and great power cords. Ultimately in my system, the PS300 was replaced in favor of great power cords straight to the FIM duplex outlets (dedicated circuits, of course). You'll have to try both and use your own listening experiences. FIM cords are expensive, but don't underestimate their effect. Goodluck.

Tried to experiment using line conditioners ie.Power Wedge/Changs...yes they do make that noticeable improvement! However upon moving on to exceptionaly designed electronics they stopped doing what their role was supposed to be. Using power cords like the shunyatas had a more profound effect with the conditioning elimenated. The test was done without a preamplifier,a CD with variable output was directly connected to the Power Amplifier to high light the effect on the system. Some surprising results with simpler configuration i guess.

I would start with the power line conditioner. I've had great results with the Chang Lightspeed CLS6400 ISO then later I upgraded cords with Kimber PK 330 with wattagate plug to my Genesis Digital Lens (great improvement), then used MIT Z-Chord II H to CD transport, DAC and McCormack TLC-1 Deluxe passive preamp (great improvement). I also upgraded to a Chang CLS9600ISO and used 6400 for tv & dss. I would not use conditioner for power amp as my local dealer explained and I tried plugging my McCormack DNA-2 into conditioner and noticed loss of dynamics & pace (Audioquest AC-12 power cord (20amp iec) works great with amp) Good luck
