Upgrading the ac cable will prevent your amp from clipping? Say that again? I am hearing things. The one thing that no one can accuse the participants in this forum of being is versed in the fundamentals of electricity. Tell me I did not read this. The difference is HUGE. Please explain for all readers on this site how this can be. I assume that just saying that something sounds better, makes it so. Like I wrote before, the only way is to move next to the power generating station. Nothing short of this will do. Or maybe battery power is what is required, but then I am sure the type of battery would be said to alter the sound. BTW do you know what type and length of cable there is between your amps and the generating station? Frightening I say compared to the twenty feet or so from your electrical panel to your amp. I am buying a small lot next to Manic 5 and will get the power at the source, so to speak. "Feel my aura Dora, it's real angora"

When I first got my gear, I was advised to protect my investment with a surge protector. Being the smart, savvy guy, I knew that investing in a power conditioner was like wasting money on good cables. They were not going to trick me from my money! So I bought a Trip Lite unit for $100.
Of course, now there are Coincident speaker cables, I/C's and power cords all around. And when I put in a couple of FIM outlet's the difference was huge!. MY amp seems to clip at a fairly low level and I'm thinking that upgrading the line is the best way to go. I have Marsh gear, so I like the ides of the Monster 5000, which is designed by Richard Marsh or there are a couple Panamax units inn my price range. I would like to spend in the $200-$400 range.
My gear is a Thule CD and Rega 25 front end, with a marsh P2000T and 400S. I also use a CJ PV-11 for the phono stage, driving Audio physic Virgo’s.
