Power filtering – Furutech or Puritan Audio?

The ANSUZ MAINS 8 is a gamechanger....the change in SQ was Dramatic They use Active Tesla Coils to change the electricity flow configuration from your outlet to your equipment. Astonishing , the difference in clarity, deep, deep soundstage...wall to wall horizontally....and only a few bucks more that your old power conditioning technology that is out of date. Best piece of gear I've purchased next to my X-3's.

I bought PSM136 a couple of weeks ago. The improvement made out of the box was striking. All gear appeared in another league. And all for just 1,320 Euro. Of course, for 10x more money I would expect a bit more.improvement. But my experience with the reputaded gear shows it is just audible improvement, but not much. To mention, all my amplifiers are for sure high-end. Enough said.

I don't have experience with either of these products, I use a Shunysta Hydra. However my best solution came after a hear that required all new feed from the city, and a new panel. I had an electrician run the first two breakers from the panel, with 10 gage solid core <20 feet to my outlets, and sink a copper grounding rod, into a dirt and rock salt pool, about 8 feet between the outlets and the ground rod and use this grounding rod only for these outlets. I use isolated ground outlets to ensure nothing comes back though the metal boxes and conduit. This solved all the problems of inconsistent power, dirty power and the frustration of never knowing what my system would sound like at different times of day. I of course live in an old house with easy access. And yes I've had electrical engineers tell me online that this is not safe, creates a different in grounding potential, etc. however my licensed electrician was happy to do it, and my set up passed inspection for code in the city of Chicago, which is know to be a bear to deal with.

Sounds like a wonderful solution for a homeowner, but alas, I live in a condo townhouse...

This arrangement is perfectly safe provided the outlets are also grounded to the buss bar in the service panel.
