A while back I was dealing with this question and had some really nice exchanges with recently passed Almarg.
Al, you might not know, had a quite a lot of experience. He summed it up to me this way:
Re my background, I’m a retired electrical engineer, with a little bit of a legal background as well. Specifically:
- BS in Electrical Engineering, Columbia University
- MS in Electrical Engineering, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute JD (Law Degree), University of Connecticut
- Licensed Attorney and Patent Attorney
- 33 years experience designing and managing design of analog, digital, A/D converter, and D/A converter circuits for defense electronics, primarily airborne radar systems.
Al said he had hit upon a reasonably priced and, in his view, sufficient solution. Here’s what he suggested and what I bought:
Three things to buy:
(a) Audience Adept Response aR2p power conditioner — found it used
(b) Wiremold Legrand powerstrip (available at Newark)
(c) Shunyata Research Venom Defender AC Power Line Reducer — found it used
Hooking it up:
(a) Audience plugs into the wall.
(b) Powerstrip plugs into the Audience
(c) Shunyata plugs into Powerstrip.
My total cost was $578.
