thanks for all the great response. Most of these items are very expensive, i was trying to stay in the 400 range (hence my initial product list) are they not good?

where are torus sold?

thanks all
the monster is humming, also lately if i turn on a lamp in the same room as rig, you hear it in the speakers, should the unit not stop it? plus monster has hard wired power cord to wall i would rather have a aftermarket (signal cable) thanks all
I failed to mention in my earlier post that the Transcendent Audio Power Conditioner retails at $650 assembled. I did the kit and I am not the greatest kit builder. The item comes up on Audiogon but they go fast. Hope this helps. Steve
Thanks for the response. Personally, I would send it back to Monster for repair of the hum. But if you don't want to. your best bet is individual dedicated power lines as I suggested. I also have a Signature Monster unit (got a great deal I couldn't pass up), but no amps are plugged into it. Only, pre-amp, tuner, turn table, Martin Logan Monolith IIIX speakers, phono stage, music server and two dacs. The monster has no hum and has it's own dedicated line to the service panel. I have two Audio Research VTM 120 Mono amps and a Mark Levinson ML3 with their own dedicated lines back to the panel.

I have no hum or ground loops whatsoever and sounds wonderful.

Enjoy
