pwr conditioner - vans evers unlimiter

hi all,

as i got no response when posting this in a thread on the ps-audio ultimate outlet, i thought i'd fish for feedback in a gnu thread. so, has anyone had any experience w/gnus? ;~)

seriously, i presently run my amps straight-in to the wall outlets - it gives the best sound - i don't tink i could afford the two ps-audio p1200's i'd prolly need to power-condition my amps w/o sucking the life outta them! ;~) but, i'm nervous running 'em unprotected - has anyone had any experience w/the vans evers *unlimiter*? this is a four-outlet conditioner specifically for amps, said specifically *not* to limit the current awailable to yer amps, regardless of their draw. at a retail price of $675, it sounds like it mite almost be worthwhile...

thanks in adwance, doug s.

The VE Unlimiter is a great product that I highly recommend. It offers the perfect solution to the issue of running "naked" into the wall directly. No more worries about spikes/surges. Well worth the $$$ IMHO. I am using mine to power a BAT VK-500 and haven't noticed ANY loss in dynamics. In fact, having a clean power supply for my amplifier has really enhanced the overall performance of my system. Just be sure to replace the crappy stock cord that comes with it.

I am using a "standard" (about $150) Vansevers power cord with my Reference 83. Much better than the stock cord. I also use one on my REL sub.

Doug: no experience with The Unlimiter but here's a good alternative. I have the Chang Lightspeed 9900 AMP. 30 amp capacity, has 4 hospital outlets, MOV (varistor) line-transient protection, input & output LED indicators, & does not constrain the amps' current. Works fine with upgrade AC cords. hope this helps...

I am using a Vans Evers model 141 (14 outlets) with everything plugged into it. Fantastic! Highly recommend Mike's products. The man is a genius.
