Accuphase e5000 and EQUI=TECH

@oddiofyl ​​@ toronto416 , thank you...

Accuphase makes two different power supplies, and one or the other is compatible with every amplifier that they make.  For example a pair of A-300 monoblocks can be plugged into one PS-1250 power supply.

Accuphase would suggest that every one of their integrated or separate amps should be plugged into an Accuphase power supply.  So the answer to your question is right there in their product line-up - starting with clean power for your amp.

I have a Son Of Q and its been great but I tend to run my amps directly into the wall.  Sources are plugged into the Equi Tech. I also have an Adcom AC 515 plugged into it.  That unit has my ethernet switch and a few other wall wart type devices plugged into it.  

@lalitk & @sns , thanks. I will give it a more serious listen each way again.

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.

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!
