Is their any way to keep voltage steady?


I have a Tice Powerblock which has a voltage meter on it. I notice when the meter is close to 120v the system sounds and looks {TV} better , than when the meter dips to around 115V. I have already added two dedicated 20amp circuts with 12 gauge wire and "better" wall sockets. Anything simple I can have my electrician do?

I used to be able to purchase commercial grade Sola brand voltage regulators rated for 120 volts / 500 watts continuous ( enough for ALL your line level components ) for less than $300 including shipping. If i remember correctly, i think that these units weigh appr 65 - 85 lbs. I can't seem to remember where this was from though, so i can't verify availability at this point in time. I will do further research on this and ( hopefully ) post some results within the next 48 hours. Keep in mind that this is not some type of device that you plug into the wall, as it would work best with a direct run to your breaker box. Sean

Monster Cable makes a voltage regulator that retails for $1500. I'm not sure, but I think the PS Powerplant, which is considered the finest sounding device, also keeps voltage at one of several preset levels.
I am currently having my own dedicated lines put in. Following the lead of abstract7 in a previous thread, I (actually the electrician) will bring a 220 line from the box to a stepdown toroidal transformer which will the put out 110 Volt of what will hopefully be good power. I believe if 220 doesn't actually come from the box then 110 won't leave the transformer. Still it does seem like it should have a better chance at goodpower.
Any opinions?
By the way, I thought we use 110 volt or is it 120?
Most power companies are running anywhere from appr 115 to 123 volts with the median figure being between 117 - 120 volts from what i can figure. To me, that is a good thing. Slight sags are not as noticeable that way and most all equipment is designed to handle those voltages. Sean
