My A/V Solo is going to end up front with the video gear (DVD, VCR, Proton 600T Preamp/Video Tuner, 27" Sony WEGA). I definitely plan to plug it into something to take care of primary filtration. Whether it turns out to be a Richard Gray, a balanced power transformer, a voltage regulator, De Zorel, etc. is for me to find out...I'll take my time to figure out what will work best.
It seems the Tice doesn't like to see heavy loads...
I will try the Power Var isolation transformer in conjunction with the Vans Evers Reference 12's. If they work signifiantly better than the Tice I will purchase a second Power Var (one for digital, one for analog). I would then upgrade the built-in filtration units, perhaps with those published by Jon Risch in his website. That would free the Solo for up front video & amplification work and to move my Proton amp close to the speakers. I currently have 28 ft runs of CAT5 and silver plated copper, not exactly a desirable situation, but cheap through The Home Depot. Filtration for the power amp would be the following upgrade.
Just one day at a time...
