Power plant and power cords upgrades a real wow?
What is the electrical benefit of the dedicated line? Does it remove load issues related to other equipment turning on and off, or are those issues still present regardless of the dedicated line? Or is it simply a matter of current being delivered directly and with less resistance? If the benefit is the former, then the argument for the conditioner becomes less effective, doesn't it? |
My earlier comments only apply to power cords/conditioners and similar products. I just find it very hard to generalize or predict the sonic effects of these products in any given situation. All the variables and permutations starts my head to hurting. If most really did find a recipe that works think how few questions would be asked and how little used equipment would be up for sale? |
01-13-13: Pgawan2bThe main benefit of a dedicated line is that it will to some degree reduce the amount of electrical noise that will find its way into the audio system from unrelated electrical devices in the house, where it may be generated. Re your last question, as might be expected reported experiences are diverse. See this thread, for example, in which many audiophiles reported that following installation of dedicated lines the conditioners they had been using were no longer necessary. And in some cases their systems even sounded significantly better with the conditioners removed. While others reported that conditioners continued to be beneficial. Regards, -- Al |
