Will second the PS Audio juice bar. Good Luck
Decent power strip
I've been searching the forum to find out if there's a reasonably priced ($100-$200) power strip to use for some headphone gear. The only information I was able to dig up was on DIY project power strips which I'm not interested in. I have 3-4 devices to plug in but only a duplex at this location. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks everyone. I got myself into a wine induced impulse purchase of a Schiit Lyr headphone amp. When I realized what I had done, I decided to man up and spare Audio Advisor the pain and suffering of my stupidity. I do have a pair of AKG K702's collecting dust and a practically brand new Rotel RCD 15 something or another stored in my basement. My plan is to relax in a spare bedroom with headphones when my wife doesn't feel like listening to music. If I enjoy this setup, I might get a DAC and use a Asus laptop I have lying around. I was pleased to find some great reviews of this amp. I realize its not the cream of the crop, but should work well for me. |
Donjr, What a coincidence. I bought my Schitt Bifrost under the same condition. Also, if the Mapleshade PC is too expensive, try the Wiremold l10320 power strip. It, like the Mapleshade, has no fuses, passive protection, indicator lights, or switch contacts to muddy up the sound. It used to go for under $30 but this is the best price I could find for the moment; http://www.alliedelec.com/search/searchresults.aspx?dsNav=Ntk:Primary%7Cwiremold+l10320%7C3%7C,Ny:True,Ro:0&dsDimensionSearch=D:wiremold+l10320,Dxm:All,Dxp:3&SearchType=0 It's sad that it's now going for more than twice its price from a decade ago and that their power strips with circuit breakers, lights, etc. goes for less than half. They must have caught onto the demand from audiophiles. By the way, it's the only power strip that Naim recommends for their products. All the best, Nonoise |
