Power conditions for Integrated Amps

I own two different integrated amps, an Allnic T-1500 300B tubed and a Luxman 590 AX II. I've tried both of them plugged directly into a dedicated 20 amp outlet and into my Niagara 1200. I detect no difference in what I hear. The moral of the story is you have to try it both ways to find out what works best for your system.

Every home is different with regards to noise levels in their lines, and every power conditioner is different. There will be a few factors that will influence whether a power conditioner will be suitable for an amplifier (or any component for that matter):

1. What type of filtering does it employ and how does it shape sound?

2. Does it limit current as a result?

Most power conditioners do enforce some type of current limitations, so if you have a power hungry amplifier, (depending on the conditioner) it sometimes cannot get the headroom it needs at peak current needs and as a result won’t be as dynamic as it should be. Sometimes the filtering also has inverse effects on the dynamics and details as well.

To date I’ve liked PS Audio power plants for everything except amplifiers. Even with their highest end P20 I still know a number of people who prefer to plug their amps into the wall. I personally own a Synergistic Research Galileo PowerCell, and I cannot tell the difference between plugging the amp straight into wall vs into the PowerCell, so I leave it in the PowerCell. 

@lak AMEN BROTHER!

It depends on the conditioner. Many impede current flow to amps(doesn't matter if it's integrated or not). A few of them don't.

Now using the Black Lion Audio PG-2. Not for conditionning since the listening room has its own dedicated electrical feed and sounds dead quite from the wall. Instead using it for convenience, it has 14 outlets on it, using 11 of them including amp. No sound difference plus it offers some decent surge protection as a bonus. Highly recommended unit for reasonable cost.
