Can I plug an amp into my Chang Conditioner

I have a Chang Lightspeed 3200 MKII power conditioner. It has outlets for digital and analog. The manual says it is non current limiting and can handle amplifiers. Can I plug my MacIntosh MA 6900 integrated amp into it? It is rated at 200 WPC. I will eventually experiment with it but wanted to see what others have done. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I would assume that that is what it is for...I personally didn't like what power conditioning did for my amp with a PS Audio Ultimate Outlet 15A version. That was with a Bryston B60 integrated. I'll probably borrow it from my friend again now that I have changed integrateds and see how it sounds. He is an audio nut with all the different kinds of conditioning etc and has said that different conditioners were good on some of his components and bad on others and vice versa. I say have fun and let your ears do the judging...you have it there...why not try it?

Happy listening

Hi, For a while I used my ss int. amp with my older Chang 6400 20amp hi current model. Sounded good but later went to a tube int. amp and also to (2)(amp and digital) dedicaded ac power lines and thought it sounded better and sold the Chang. I think the 3200 was made more for lower powered gear( cdp, pre-amp, tuner). But give your amp a try. Jerry

My amps plug into the wall. Everything else goes into either the Panamax or Monster conditioners.
