New filter/regenerator

Nsgarch, thanks for the response. Now I feel better knowing I am not just hearing things. My mind would tell me these transformers should not work becasue they are not name branded in audio. I also have A SVC 1000 voltage converter but it has only one outlet. It comes with regulation as well but I swear on the cdp this sounds better than the KLR. I will have to give the EP15 a try but the other gent who uses both said one is convenient and looks a whole lot better but the transformers do a great job too. I was curious about all of this so I had to give them a try. Glad I did and you obviously have been doing this along time and know what you are talking about. You will be helping others no doubt. You also said smoothing out the AC waveform and that is exactly what I am hearing on the high frequencies. Just enough without losing detail. The hash has disappeared in a good way. I cannot stress enough about what clean power really does.

I suppose isolation transformers, like everything else, are made with varying degrees of 'quality'. And I don't really know what all those attributes might be (probably lack of hum/vibration would be a big plus ;-) Enough capacity would be the best place to start in selecting one, and you'd be surprised how fast they can get really big!

Nsgarch, you are a world of knowledge and have a lot of experience. Take notes people...I have run into guys regarding tubes and some have knowledge and others have major league experience. This guy has both.

I bought the Firewall 3 weeks ago and it is still burning in. I don't know what's in it but what I know is that is sounds fantastic. You can say about it all that you use to hear about a good conditionner( soundstage, silence etc) but what you can add is extraordinary presence of the musicians and singers. The sound is more transparent and robust as time goes on (very very long to burn in) Absolutely organic. Yesterday at night I listened Wagner's Walkyrie : is was little less than orgasmic (lol).
I won't say about other conditionners because I don't know another one, but I can say that it doesn't interess me because I can' t expect one to sound better. (I admit I can be wrong on that point).

Barbapapa, would you say the Firewall is a good value with a price of 5k? Do you think they are making a little profit out of a wood box? What is in it that makes it 5 grand? 5k today seems like 10k if you know what I mean. I also know that just adding dedicated lines with Oyaide outlets can make a big improvement and cost on average 1k. Even two dedicated lines and four outlets may only set you back 1k. With that being said the Firewall still could prove to be a revelation and only time will tell. I do know off another agoner who has had some well known conditioners and said the Firewall is far better. He also has a top notch system.
