Power conditioner or outlet?
I have a Shunyata MPC-12a power conditioner. Read that it was a good choice for audio equipment so I bought it. I also have high end power cords to all my equipment, as well as to my Shunyata.
I have recently read comments from listeners that you should plug your amp/preamp straight into the wall. Is that the case if you have a good power conditioner? I will do so if it is a better option, just concerned about no surge protection for the amps...but also don't want degraded sound! I am asking this because I am a newbie at all this, more money than audio sense. I am interested if anyone might have any experience in this

QUOTE : easola01 OP142 posts10-05-2018 1:48pmVair68robert.....wow, complicated! For me at least. I don't understand all of that, you have obviously invested a great deal of research in coming up with all this. What I think I do understand is I should invest in these ps audio harvesters in addition to my power conditioner? This would improve sound...is that right? Easola01 : Install a surge protector at the breaker panel, and use whatever power conditioner sounds good to you. Schneider Electric makes a compact surge protector, and Home Depot now carries them. They retail for about 90.00 to 120.00. Better to catch the surge before it gets into the house. The ones in the house will be secondary in effectiveness. |
