As suggested earlier try it both ways and go with the one that sounds best. Trust your ears!

@Psinyc, hmmm.... It seems your Triton PC is ""SHUNYATA Research"" power conditioner. and not a Synergistic research!!! @dicockrum, Once again you are right... BTW, My powercell was one of those earliest version and seems new versions like 10UEF are phenomenal. I am considering to buy one of those 10UEFs. My MPC mods were done by Michael Spallone, whom is a nice guy to deal with. @stereo5, Hydra 2 could handle higher current but it still be a current-limited PC. Compared to other Hydra PCs, it doesn't have a surge protection feature. @markus1299, PS-10 seems to be a good PC. However, be careful on loading too much charge on it. It could only handle up to 1500Watts! which means it is a current limited PC. cheers... |
dlcockrum The place for a surge protector is on your TV cable line (only, unless you like choking the current flow to your audio system).Sorry, but this is mistaken. The notion that all surge protectors are "choking the current flow to your audio system" is simply misinformed. A surge protector on your cable TV line offers no protection to your audio equipment. It also offers no protection from a lightning strike. To protect from a lightning surge - which is clearing the most dangerous to electronic equipment - you can't do better than a Type 1 device. The Leviton 50240-MSA is probably as good as any for this use, and it does not limit current. Oddly, not all utilities allow Type 1 devices to be installed in their meter panels. A Type 2 surge protector will also not limit current. Some Type 3 devices do limit current, but not nearly so much as many audiophiles suspect. This can be shown by measuring the device's output under load. |
