After using Monster (which constricted the sound) and Powervar, I now use an APC h15 (the s15 battery-backup one was Stereophile recommeded). At this point, I can't say enough good things about it. It has significant surge protection, isolated outlet banks and voltage regulation.
Voltage Stabilizer, Power Conditioner, or both
I know there's lots of discussion of this issue, but I haven't seen a clear answer to this.
Here's my incoming setup:
McIntosh MC207
McIntosh MX119
McIntosh MVP861
With Vandersteens in the front and center; Klipsch in the back.
The room is not treated. I live in New York City in a condo building with all new wiring.
Do I need the stabilizer to protect my electronics? Will either the stabilizer or the conditioner improve sonic quality?
Thanks!
