@hm1, I wish I could afford the LS-4004. The Inakustik power conditioner is what I use and has transformed my system. I don't think I can go back "direct to wall".
+1 cohsystms: I've only tried the entry level offering (Electraclear), and it's really an outstanding product. Especially for the price ($60.00 each here on Audiogon). Bill is an absolute delight to talk with on the phone, and I look forward to auditioning some of his more sophisticated products in the future.
No way I'd put my gear straight into the wall, but I come from a state with notorious bad thunderstorms and lightning. Also, I've never heard the Furman make things worse, only better.
I use differential noise reducing component before my eqitech 2q. Experimenting confirmed this works best in my system. Am curious to try filtering the grounding after reading about shunyata ground filter used in the absolute sound ref system. Has anyone experience with the ground filter?
Always had good results with using balanced power products compared to other types of power conditioners. Have used BPT, Blue Circle, Bryston (rebadged Torus), Equitech, and now Plixir, and they have all gave bigger improvements than other brands that don't do balanced power.
Everyone's house and system is different but that's been my experience.
