Tvad,Thanks for the links. From my first quick read, the UPC-200 is more promising than the Ultimate High Current Outlet. However, the PS comparison tool does not yet list the UPC-200. So, I was not able to get a quick comparison with the Hydra 4....

Rgs 92,Your set up sounds great! I have run across reports by others who have been equally pleased with such a set up. Four Anaconda Alphas for my 3 amps and for a Hydra 8, together with one Anaconda Vx for my APL, plus the Hydra 8 itself will all...

Mating power cords with APL 3910
Tvad,At this stage, I have not made any firm decisions on Hydra 8 or the power cables. I'm trying to do my homework, with the gracious input from you all, to define some options for power filtration and a short list of PCs as a starting point. And...
