gb,
The amps plugging into the 1800 may lessen some of the dynamics from the sound. If this happens, try plugging those into an outlet rather than the 1800. I've never liked the amp sound with a power conditioner because of that. I do have 2 Core Power 150s. One has the preamp going to it alone and it to on outlet. The other has all my front end stuff plugged into a Synergistic Research QLS-6 power strip and it plugs into the CPT-150 which is then plugged into an outlet. All my power cables are high end. If you want to try your amps without plugging into the 1800, you will need 2 identical length power cables from the same maker. I have 2 sets of WyWires Juice II PCs that I was using with my mono amps, but bought a pair of LessLoss Reference PCs this week that sound much better in all ways.
I will not be using the WyWires cables any longer if you're interested. They are in the reasonably priced category for power cords. The LLR are in the upper category price wise. They are the same length and would give you a very good idea if putting your amps separate from the 1800 is good or a waste of time. They were the equal of LessLoss Original PCs that I had at the time. LL cords have been very well reviewed and are thought highly of at their price point. Let me know if this interests you.
