Yes, PS Audio has revolutionized the plc market. But what about other aletrnatives such as MIT Z series or AudioPower wedges. These units can be had cheaply on the used market or should I just save my pennies for the PS Audio?
I agree with Joe2001, after I upgraded PC's (FIM and Ensemble) the PS Audio hurt far more than it helped. I got rid of the PS Audio and got an Ensemble power strip.
Abruce: Interesting, because I've got some very effective power cords (Full Spectrum) and find that the PS Audio helps with them, rather than hinders. I acknowledge that top notch power cords can be a significant improvement, but ya gotta factor in the cost if you've got a lot of components. The PS Audio is a cost-effective component in that situation.
Abruce, I am very interested to hear your thoughts on the Ensemble Mega Power Point (you do have the mega version right?). I am interested in it and I would like your opinion on how it beat the PS Audio in your system. Also, do you have your amps plugged into it?
Another alternative that you may want to entertain is waiting for Shunyata Research's "Hydra" power conditioner (supposed to retail around $2,000). If it's anything like their power cords, it's at least worth a listen. Like everything else in audio, won't be everyone's cup of tea, so audition before you buy.
I bought a PS P300 after reading all the great things people where saying about them. I thought it was great, and was very pleased, but the improvment it offers doesn't even come close to what The Powersnakes King Cobra did for my system. I still use my P300 as well as I think it still helps, but I got a lot more by upgrading my powercords to Shunyata power cords.
