Richard Gray 1200S, Hydra or ????

Kicking around an upgrade in the powerline area.

Already have decicated panel and lines; FPL replaced the wiring from the post to the house (and a nice improvement that was).

But power is still a bit spotty.

So what's the way to go?

I'd like something that I can plug a pair of Rogue Mangun monblocks into.

You can go the Hydra, Richard Gray, Audio Magic Stealth,
CFX, etc. www.enjoythemusic.com did a review a few months back. Alot depends on what you seek. All these products like anything in audio have certain sonic signatures. The review may help.

Good response A_Sanctuary_of_Sound, just one more thing I would like to add that any of these components will perform differently in your home, all of us have slightly different AC power and it can cause a large difference. Looks like an in home audition is around the corner KP, should be fun as long as your room is kept cool with those Magnum 120 space heaters going ;) Cheers ~Tim

Richard Gray dealers are 'supposed' to loan units. You have nothing to lose...

Yea, time to start researching indepth. I'll see what dealers allow audtions of a couple of these fancy power strips.
Sos, I found a bunch of articles on that site, thanks for the tip.
Tireguy, the 120's run much cooler since I swtiched to Svte 6550c's. It's liveable now!
