@greg7 - Having read through the postings, a couple of products stand out for me
- Yout Furutech e-TP66(g) - mainly because they use the Furutech outlets, which are a proven product, but also because you can attach the power cable of your choice
- Cullen Cable - because they use Pass and Seymour audio outlets which are very good AND they use Military spec 99.99% Silver plated OFC copper wire with Teflon Dielectric. Both of which I have used in my own DIY power bar with great results
But if I were to recommend a power bar it would be the Furutech E-TP-60
Furutech E-TP60 (G) AC power distributor | Free shipping within Canada (artetson.ca)
- Mainly because it has Furutech outlets that use phosphor Bronze for the base metal of the contacts, which is much better than Brass.
- But also, the receptacles are wired to the IEC AC input of the e-TP60
- as opposed to wiring the outlets in parallel (which can lead to noise contamination across outlets)
I made my own power distribution center that use the Pass and Seymour outlets and solid UP-OCC copper wires internally. I use a couple of switches to control individual outlets and a micro-breaker for overload protection of the whole unit - no filters or chokes.
FYI: I only have one digital source and one analogue source (+ turntable) in my system, so noise contamination is well controlled. I also use my own DIY power cables that are designed to minimize noise generated between wires, components and cables
See - My Audio Alchemy (image99.net)
And I still plug my amp into the wall outlet
But I do conceded that more elaborate solutions may be required in situations where
- the power supply is of poor quality
- more source components are connected
That’s my 10c worth
