Who has dumped the power conditioner?

Ppat, do you ever post, and if so, about what?

I tend to agree with you as obviously there is no consensus on anything here. It has always seemed crazy that people would expect one and that anyone would think that words can really be used to characterize sounds.

But that does mean that I have not sought improvements over time. I really only post to reveal my impressions, not to persuade others.

Tbg - People who post about their experiences with gear help me a lot to make decisions and learn, while people who say that everything is relative and I should listen to music instead don't help at all.

Audiofeil: Thanks for correcting the aforementioned situation.......Prosoundman, c'mon.......say "Unprofessional"! Now c'mon, say it......"Unethical"....And, after that, can You say "Misleading". It means the same in Canada, as it does in the good Ole' US of A!!!!!!J.C.

Getting back to the original topic, I have tried a couple of different power conditioners in my system, and both were absolutely awful sounding, especially for LP playback. They weren't nearly as detrimental for CD playback, though the sound was still compressed, both in dynamics and soundstaging. I won't be trying another.

Lear... which power conditioners did you try? I see you have a monster HTS power center in your system page... It'd be a shame if you are basing your views off how that crap sounds.
