Accuphase e5000 and EQUI=TECH

I have my Accuphase E-650 plugged into a balanced power transformer (Shindo Mr. T). I am using a pair of Mr, T’s, one for all source components and other one for E-650 + phonostage. To my ears, I prefer this configuration better than E-650 directly into the wall. Keep in mind, not all balanced transformations created equal so your results may differ. 

What I’d recommend, try both configurations. When plugged into Equi=Tech, listen for transient speed, low end grunt and dimensionality. You may also hear lower noise floor even though Accuphase are dead quiet. I was able to further lower noise floor by installing isolation feet’s under E-650.

If you hear E5000 more alive or dynamic directly into wall, run your front-end gear on the Equi=Tech and leave the amp direct.

Have fun and report back your findings! 

Latik provides good advice. I have Balanced Audio Technology 3.5 Signature with diy mods, this transformer based conditioner, tried class A SS, push pull tubes, 845 and 300B SET, every amp has performed better straight into wall. In every case I've heard some loss of transients, less liveliness going into BPT, I'd also add this also with a myriad of power conditioners borrowed from lending library at the CableCompany.  As for my dedicated feed for amps, 20 amp breaker, 10AWG cryo'd Romex, Oyaide R1 AC receptacle. I've also always run my subs on same dedicated feed.
