RGPC 1200 custom vs. Furman Elite 15 pfi

I have an opportunity to get a used RGPC 1200 Custom at a great price. How is it for 2 channel audio components (tt, dac/streamer, bi-amped speakers, CD, tape deck and tv along w cable box? What about plugging an integrated tube amp into it as well? I'm familiar with the name but don't know much about the product. 
How does it compare with the Furman Elite 15 pfi?

With the RGPC Just try it both ways and see what sounds better. Power conditioners are really system dependent. 

Sometimes will sound better with amp plugged in, sometimes to wall. RGPC works in parallel and they sometimes recommend plugging amp into wall same circuit and still get benefit.

Just try both ways and go with whatever sounds better.

Based on my research Richard Gray's PCs have a common complaint: Compressing and limiting dynamics. The general advice is to plug source components into his stuff, and the amp into the wall.

The compression and limiting are concerns. If I use it, I'll definitely plug the amp into the wall. Could it cause issues with other components?

Is the Furman Elite 15 pfi better regarding those concerns?
