Power Conditioner for Amp

Can you guys recommend a power conditioner that can handle a high powered Amp?

I currently have an Isotek Aquarius, but I feel my Amp (Ayre AX-5 Twenty) sounds better when connected to wall.

As my DAC and preamp benefit quite a bit from the Aquarius, I am thinking its because of the power on Amp.

Over the years, found power distributors work best with amps.  Not current limiting and remove noise passively.   Never prefer any components straight into wall outlet.

Happy Listening and Keep Me Posted!

Give the new Titan one a try from Isotek, its cheaper than the full titan is expressly designed to reduce noise.  If it doesnt work, then you might think of upgrading your Amplifier

I have an Equi-Tech Son of Q.   It’s a monster , weighs about 65 lbs.  Most of that weight is the massive toroidal in there.  

I have had it 10 years and it’s been on the whole time without a fault.  

My previous place had power issues with noise and it made a big improvement 

i just set my system up after a little hiatus and my new place has modern power and my system is dead silent.  Running two Quicksilver Mid Monos , a c-j pre and several sources into it.  Great product.
