Power Cord & Power Conditioner Recommendations

Ha! You're right - lots of choices and info. And it's true that you need to trust your own ears. I imagine there are threads around discussing good matching with your Golden Ears and Naim.....

That said, I see cables as components and have listened to many....maybe too many. Dynamic Designs Lotus power cords would be a place to land. Used they are a steal. Also BMI Whale Elites if you can find them. Bang for buck goes to Triode wire labs and ESP Essence in my experience. 

Power conditioning depends on what you have coming in. If you have widely variable voltage or lots of noise, a regenerating conditioner is a good idea. The AmpRx Brown box is also a pretty good solution and could even be used with other conditioners.

Good clean power makes a significant difference in a quiet background, imaging and detail and is worth dropping some coin on....Again, in my experience...of course, the power in my village is about as inconsistent and spiky as it gets.

Good luck with finding the right power cord and power conditioner.
Regarding power conditioning, yup - you’re also right. Some amplifiers and other components can be sensitive to voltage sags or spikes from unregulated power (mainly high frequency swtiching noise). This is where the voltage regulation aspect of a power conditioner comes in to play. There are also radio frequencies to consider that literally exist within wall sockets... :/

Since we must use our ears in this hobby, any upgrades we make along the way are easy to detect.

The power in my home is already clean (some other proper brand) and the internal wiring is high-quality. The home was originally built by a certified construction expert & electrician) who worked for a tough client!!

A lot of great information for me to do follow-up research on thanks so much for the input guys!

Something more for consideration:
Isotek Evo3 Aquarius with Shunyata Venom HC (v1 or 2).
The Aquarius made a big difference in my system with the as supplied Premium cord.
Replacing it with a Venom HC v1 brought further improvement.

Awesome thanks for all the info - so it seems all things considered the fact that I have an older house plus the cost / benefit realities would make power conditioning the priority for sound quality and equipment protection - then budget for power cords later. With the 2 powered subs in the tritons plus all other components I will need 5 power cords which is too expensive for me to buy all at once along with the conditioning. Would the conditioner be a product I should buy new (typically I buy demo equipment) to have an equipment protection warranty, etc.? Also assuming the blue book value of the components totals 12k or so what be a reasonable price cap for the conditioner?
