Power Conditioner/Surge Protector Options


I know it’s not cables, but be I consider the discussion relevant snake oil to cables!…lol

Is there any reason why a Triplite LCR2400 shouldn’t perform just as competently as say an Audioquest Niagara or Furman Elite 15PFi?!

I’m mostly interested in responses that have some scientific backing rather than your personal experiences (unless you are an EE, etc.). TIA!

Ozzy,

I am open to new ideas, but I’m quite wary of products claiming to make enormous improvements when those improvements are barely noticeable or nonexistent. For instance, I’m sure Shunyata makes similar claims to Audioquest but some on here claim one or the other is the cat’s meow while the other (take your pick) did nothing or actually detracted from the sound. Who’s right and who just wants to validate their purchase? That is why I prefer to turn to a scientific explanation of the technology and why it works rather than just saying that it does and you should take a $2-5K leap of faith!….

“ I am open to new ideas, but I’m quite wary of products claiming to make enormous improvements when those improvements are barely noticeable or nonexistent.”

Indeed ! It always seems to revolve around the same * I Believe* suspects, curious that!

boostedis,

I doubt if you will find the scientific explanation between units as you state. Each company makes components based on their ideas, and they all think they are the best. Specifications, numbers, statistics can lie, let your ears be the judge.

Good Luck.

I don't think anyone here told you to take a "leap of faith." Rather, they've suggested you listen.

An argument could be made that relying on the practical value of the "scientific explanation" requires a greater leap of faith than listening for yourself. After all, it's possible to make actual technical "improvements"  that are sonically undetectable.
