In audiophile terms it could be a dramatic, never going back, veils removing, you'd have to be deaf not to hear it change. Or, it could be very subtle and possibly not even a positive change. As others have pointed out it can be very system dependent. Based upon your comments I would recommend you not go in the direction of power conditioners. Picking the right conditioner (for you) and pairing it with the right power cord will be a time consuming endeavor. Unless you really want to play with the equipment, why bother?
Am i missing something without a power conditioner?
I need your advice on power conditioners. I know there is alot talked about with power conditioners. But let me explain my situation and what i have. First and foremost i upgraded all my stock power cords. I am using and have a Krell FPB 600 amp with a Shunyata Research Sigma HC power cord. I am using and have an Audio Research Ref 6 preamp with a Shunyata King Cobra Helix CX power cord. And have a Rega ISIS cd player with a Shunyata Sigma digital power cord. I have 1 dedicated 20 amp line with a 4 plug 20 amp wall outlet that my amp and preamp plug into. My question is with these high quality power cords do i still need a power conditioner?

@tattooedtrackman, Here is an affordable unit you could find used on Audiogon etc, or buy new at a discounted price. Find a Core Power Technologies CPT 300 which has an attached power cord that works well and attach it to a power strip. This will give you balanced power and if you plug your front end components into it (not your amp) it will assist and give you a much quieter background yielding more details and depth to your music. BTW; one of the power conditioners I use is the Shunyata Research Denali D2000/T. *https://positive-feedback.com/reviews/hardware-reviews/core-power-technologies-equicore-300/ *http://v2.stereotimes.com/post/core-power-technologies-equicore-300 https://www.corepowertechnologies.com https://www.underwoodhifi.com/taxonomy/term/75 * I have no idea why the first two website reviews arn't working? |
