Something is better than nothing.I feel the front end benefits from clean power provided by better power conditioner products such as your Shunyata. I feel amps should be unrestricted, so you have two choices. Power conditioner products that will support the load of the amp, or at a minimum some type of higher current power protection device. ( APC, Furman, ... ).
Power conditioner or outlet?
I have a Shunyata MPC-12a power conditioner. Read that it was a good choice for audio equipment so I bought it. I also have high end power cords to all my equipment, as well as to my Shunyata.
I have recently read comments from listeners that you should plug your amp/preamp straight into the wall. Is that the case if you have a good power conditioner? I will do so if it is a better option, just concerned about no surge protection for the amps...but also don't want degraded sound! I am asking this because I am a newbie at all this, more money than audio sense. I am interested if anyone might have any experience in this
