Power Conditioners

Before spending money on a power conditioner I would run a separate spur from the junction box and try passive EMI/RMI suppression. I have great experience with Acoustic Revive powercables and RTP multi-connectors

To those who say PLCs don’t work, I say, you haven’t heard really good ones. Many that I have owned obscured the music; PS Audio Power Plant, Furman; my BPT was pretty good though

I have a 20amp dedicated line to my system outlet, but still benefit from my CorePower 1800, which I bought to handle all my equipment; digital, preamp/dac, power amps. At the moment I am no longer using a preamp/dac, and could easily get along with their new 600 and possibly their Deep Core.

I did find that my EVS1200 class D dual mono amp, based on IcePower1200AS modules sounds much better direct though. But it doesn’t have a super-duper power supply, as has been suggested

CorePower from Underwood HiFi is incredible and reasonably priced.

+1 for the Inakustik 3500P.  I plug everything into it.

To anyone who doubts the efficacy of a good power conditioner because they haven't heard a difference, I'd like to know if your gear has lights, meters or displays that can be turned off. 

If so, try turning them off to see if you can hear a difference. If you can't, then it's you and not the conditioner, or, your system is simply not resolving enough.

I say this because when I first got my Marantz Reference gear (integrated and SACD player), I tired it with the display on or off and couldn't hear a difference. That was before I got my Niagara 1200 and the Isoacoustic Oreas. On a lark, I tried it again and the difference was big enough to make me reconsider a lot of things. 

There's now so much more air, separation, detail and nuances laid bare that those dirty LED displays were injecting noise back into the gear and superimposing itself on the music, blurring things more than just a little.
The line noise was so dirty that it helped cover the negative contributions of the LEDs. 

Before my getting the Niagara 1200, I thought LEDs and displays had no real effect at all.

All the best,

the answer is yes - others heard the difference easily. I have had a number of conditioners in the past.  None were cheap and none really made a sizable difference, but I wanted to protect gear.  My dealer suggested I audition a Niagara 5000. The difference was plainly and immediately audible. I didn’t have to squint and ask myself what was I hearing.  My reaction about 5 seconds into the audition was “crap now I’ll be spending $4k”.  Obviously, every situation is different such as quality of power coming into the house and the gear you’re using, so YMMV.  For what it’s worth, my local dealer told me that every customer who’s auditioned the Niagara at home has purchased one.  I was sincerely hoping to prove him wrong.
