The best plug in filter ever!

Indeed not. I don't intend to force 'my preferences' on anyone. I simply point out that if you don't control all the variables you can, you aren't sure of your own findings. I am as vulnerable to those confounders as anyone. I don't want to spend a great deal of money and then have no way of knowing whether I made an improvement or not. Better still, find out before buying rather than afterwards. If I cannot isolate the thing I bought from every other factor, I'm very likely to let the price I paid influence what I think about it. Don't believe me, believe Feynman “The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool.” It is sad, but true, and also unsurprising.

So let's have no condescending sarcasm. I don't mind what other people believe, nor what they like to buy and believe sounds good. Their money, their business. The issue comes along when they say to others that they should buy it too. Then we need just even a little teeny bit of evidence. No?

Empirical evidence is evidence.

1 in Puritan 156 and 1 in HFC MC-6 Signature 3D

The one in Puritan156 has greater result since my Jeff Rowland amp and Lumin streamer connect into. Along with my series of MC-05s and MC-1s magnets

Re: HF MC-0.5's. I experimented with placement, eventually following Rick Schultz's recommendation to start at the wall. I have two dedicated lines, there are 2 MC-0.5s in each duplex and one more in a power strip with amp and preamp. There is so much sonic improvement. Plugging a MC-0.5 in my EquiCore + DeepCore yielded very little effect. Possibly because the HF's need to condition the mains.

Whatever technology the Puron uses, it seems like it will work anywhere in a system. I'm expecting a demo unit from Mark since the Purons are sold out. Maybe you bought the last one.

@lowrider57 sorry Buddy. I was going to wait til next year to purchase a 2nd one. I want to make sure if the first Puron will work in my system first and if it’s worth the money.

As I mentioned earlier about its sounding character, Purons and HFC magnets results in my system a bit differently. I thinkThe Purons sound similar to HFC Q-45T enhancer- warmer and fuller, more musical and authority. (NPS-1260’s crisp, clean more revealing and detailed )

The spot I chose to put on the 2nd Puron at HFC MC-6 power conditioner is just a temporary. I will find a spot for it on my main Puritan-156 Pwr conditioner along with the first Puron and my chain of series HFC magnets after Christmas. Cheers

Note: I have 2 separate dedicated AC lines for each power conditioners via hospital grade Hubble AC outlets.

My comment about you buying the last one was tongue-in-cheek since you advised me they would sell out and then you made another purchase. Very decent of Mark to send me a demo unit to try.

So, most of your system runs off the Puritan. I split my MC-0.5's between the analogue line and the digital. My Core Power conditioners handle all the digital so I'll try the Puron on the amp & preamp line. Very good description of the sonic effects of the Puron, thank you, it filled in the blanks.
