Clean Power without the drawbacks of Conditioning Filtering. Advice?

Hi-

From reading i see there is a lot of talk on the drawbacks of Conditioning filtering. Dynamics and freq. limitations etc.

I want to ask if there is a power strip+cord that are not filtering. I think i could possibly get away without conditioning.
From searching it looks like there are the cheapo strips that you don't want to use OR Conditioning strips.

Wondering if there is a good reliable strip that does not screw around with the sound and can also deliver to an 800w consumption tube amp.

Thanks!

Check out "The Cable Company". They have a lot of power distribution products. I use an Acoustic Revive in my system. It's a good one but Furutech, Oyaide, Synergistic Research, etc. also make them. Instead of an extension cord, I'd look for a power cord (on the site as well).

I have two of these: http://www.cullencable.com/111-2/ and they work just fine. With a little bit of sleuthing, you can find other brands that work as well for around the same price.

All the best,

That's right, Wiremold is the power strip recommended by Naim.
Commercial grade, no filtering or extra circuits, but does use a 6 ft. captive cord. I use one and find it transparent.

Cullen is a highly rated strip for clean transfer from mains.
