Get Power Conditioner -downgrade my expensive PCs?

Thanks all

I'm looking at a APS model which has legitimate features like constant 120v, and runs off a battery (which takes the Power Company out of the equation) etc.

I have modest $500 PC cables now, and figure that I could switch to 10g copper ones, with double sheilding and good connectors for about $100 each

Why not.. Im dealing with clean A/C output, so I figure that all I need is a neutral delivery system - your thoughts?

NB: Besides the "smoke and mirrors" aspect of some PCs, sometimes you're paying for legitimate technology to actually filter out some of your A/C problems..(which can can sometimes justify expensive cables) so why not a $100.00 nuetral cable for clean A/C applications?

"sometimes you're paying for legitimate technology to actually filter out some of your A/C problems" - and what else are you filtering?

If you're considering paying big $ for cords, work on your AC delivery into the house first.

The ones who usually make the biggest noises about AC cords are the same ones who recoil in horror regarding dbt - golden ears and clothesless emperors just seem to go together.

How else could a 2 year old epiphany that cost $4500 and was a soundstaging wonder now be selling for less than $400? Has AC changed so much? Have power cords advanced so much? Please. A fool and his money.... - you know the verse.

Get clean AC into the house first, then a decent conditioner or regenerator. If a cord mkes that much difference then you have crappy power supplies in your components.

tvad:

your prior post is the best articulated statement that i have ever read of the psycho-pathology of audiogoners (myself included). Bravo!
