Is a high priced Line Conditioner needed


I have 2 dedicated power lines coming in to my wall for my stereo.Do I need a high priced Line Conditioner to make my system sound better and or safe or will a small priced Monster do the trick?Why waste money on a High priced Conditioner for a dedicated line?Thanks for your help!

Akg_ca, I don't think I agree entirely with your post. Certainly additional filters can add up to current restrictions. And most high end audio conditioners don't do much more than that.

But the one that I linked to in my earlier post is not a filter and can produce an undistorted sine wave at full capacity (15 amps) without distortion or noise on the AC waveform, and can regulate the line voltage as well.

They made a bigger one that could handle 29 amps at full capacity! They do tend to be mechanically noisy so you usually have to place them near your breaker box, and run the audio room wiring off of the conditioner. But unlike the ones your dealer demonstrated, this kind actually works. The Elgar at the link has not been made in some years, so you have to jump through some hoops to use one, but having seen it first hand I can say its worthwhile. And this is coming from a manufacturer who normally does not recommend power conditioners for precisely the reasons you described.
Atmasphere,

I have your S-30 power amp -- a truly great amp. Here is what I do to optimize my front end. I use a medical grade isolation transformer into the wall and a Shunyata Triton into the isolation transformer. Then I have a Monarchy power regenerator for my front end (transport and DAC) plugged into the Triton. Shunyata says they do not recommend using any other technology with their Triton. But there is no question that the isolation transformer greatly improves its performance.
