Chang Lightspeed or Running Springs Audio


I'm looking to replace my old power conditioner with either a Chang CLS 709 or a Running Springs Audio Haley. The Haley costs about 50% more and also has two additional outlets. I'm hoping someone is familiar with both and can offer their thoughts.
Thanks for your time.

I have the Lightspeed CLS 705 and it made for an extremely quiet background. I told a friend I didn't really know what people meant by a black background until hearing my system with and without the Chang. Good luck on your choice.
Mfoley3 -

last year some conglomerate bought out Running Springs Audio (RSA) so customer service will surely suffer.

Any particular reason for the Chang?
Jafant,

Let's wait and learn about customer service folling this change at RSA, as opposed to making assumptions without specific evidence from this new arrangement at RSA.
Hi Jafant, Roscoeiii and Bobandcathi,

First, apologies for the very late response. I did purchase a new RSA Haley conditioner in January of 2013. Its arrival was delayed a month due to the unavailability of the three feet upon which the unit sits. Once received, an EU standard power cord was mistakenly sent. This wasn't a particular issue as I upgraded the power cord to a US Acoustic Zen Krakatoa. Since then, I've had no issues and I am quite pleased with the Haley. The background is definitely quieter and the system sounds more open with better sound staging and sweeter highs.
Good to hear, MFoley3.
