Thiel Owners

hi Jon,   it is an amazing device and i would make it the number one piece in my system.  it allows all the devices that plug into it to run and sound better.  i think we audio guys typically spend too much attention on the gear and not enough on the room and the quality of the electricity that feeds it.

I don't know that gear, but I have some relevant experience. First, with regenerated power with good specs and enough storage, it doesn't need to be reconditioned. Proper regeneration is proper power. When mixing and mastering music and burning first-item gold master CDs, I have always waited until the electricity cleaned up around 2:AM to noticeable sonic improvement over daytime electricity, even with industrial line filters.

Clean power is a big deal. I don't know the current products or PS' offerings, but it is worth paying attention to, in my opinion.

Prof Thank you! This is why I asked. I guess your slp-05 isn't plugged into a power conditioner! So that's two thumbs up for the PS power regenerator over the box of snake oil, So it might be some shirts and a p10 from you Ronkent   

Hi Thieliste what are you feeding your 3.7 with now? 

dcancastagna,

I don’t have a slp-05.

But I do have a lot of equipment - all my home theater source equipment on one rack, and beside it all my 2 channel equipment (which include Conrad Johnson Premier 16LS2 pre-amp, Conrad Johnson mono block tube amps, an Eico HF-81 integrated tube amp, Benchmark Dac, Transrotor turntable, phono stage, JL Audio crossover, raspberry pi server...)

I have most of it plugged in to some Furman power bars, as they are good quality, a perfect design for where they had to go, and I at least wanted some level of protection as we have quite a number of futzes and power outs in our power.

In my own research looking in to power conditioners, and looking in to what people from various sides had to say, I was not sold on them. And it did seem that even the more "objectivist" electrical engineer types seemed to agree that they are more apt to be deleterious than beneficial - e.g. they can in principle limit the power going to your amp when it needs sudden big surges. So most said best to just plug power amps in to the wall - most people’s power is fine and most decent amps have a power supply designed to handle the level of noise they are most likely to encounter.


I had a dedicated line put in quite a while ago, and my amps go in to there. My sources/preamps etc go in to the furman power bar.
