Protecting AMP and Cleaning AC Power

I use a Furman Elite 15 PFI for my front end components. I have my tube amp plugged straight into the wall. The Furman can be power limiting. There are some power conditioners though designed especially for amps. I personally have not tried any of them. Not only is there the cost of the conditioner but another power cord as well. I would not want both my front end components including turntable and amp using the same power conditioner. Try plugging your amp straight into the wall and see how it effects the sound.


 

I've had considerable success using a PS Audio Premier Power Plant regenerator for everything but my amp which is conditioned through use of a PS Audio Duet.  This may work well here because I live in a rural area where I am not sharing power with lots of people/businesses in close proximity. My Premier, as I type this shows 2.5% incoming distortion, outputting after regeneration, .6%.  Some AGON members have mentioned urban distortion over double what I receive from my power company.  In their case, a quality generator or uber effective conditioner is a necessity.

I am in a unique and different situation myself but i have devoured info on this subject,you will never get a 100% answer either way. Price is a concern? if so i think there is one used here for a few hundred bucks. do you need to control voltage? i do so i lean toward the p series like the p2400ar i do like the reference it( it woud be my choice if i didnt need voltage reg)  if you want to put an amp thru it dont skimp it will cost ya imo .. core is also coming out with a 1500 and 1800 watt supply this month ,conditioning power is a hot debate . if you do run balanaced power it will cost ya.hit up eric squires he has alot of knowledge in this department and i think he may also have a 15 for sale ..

The guys at McCormack told me not to use anything between the amp and the wall outlet. So, I don't.
I do have a PS Audio Dectet for the other stuff. I, too, am concerned about power fluctuations and spikes, but, despite numerous power outages, my DNA-1 amplifier hasn't suffered any damage to date.
If I could afford a power regenerator, maybe I would get one, but, being a poor gardener with a taste for quality sound, I think I can live without one.-Besides SMc, can fix anything that happens, and upgrade it to boot.
