Am i missing something without a power conditioner?


I need your advice on power conditioners. I know there is alot talked about with power conditioners. But let me explain my situation and what i have. First and foremost i upgraded all my stock power cords. I am using and have a Krell FPB 600 amp with a Shunyata Research Sigma HC power cord. I am using and have an Audio Research Ref 6 preamp with a Shunyata King Cobra Helix CX power cord. And have a Rega ISIS cd player with a Shunyata Sigma digital power cord. I have 1 dedicated 20 amp line with a 4 plug 20 amp wall outlet that my amp and preamp plug into. My question is with these high quality power cords do i still need a power conditioner?

I will vouch for the Isotek Syncro. I paired one with an Isotek Aquarius EVO3 so that the Syncro feeds the juice to the Aquarius which in turn provides 6 outlets. I got both for about $4K new with a discount. But I was warned and I stand by the adage that with power conditioners, everything is system-dependent including the variables of locale and power coming into the house. I recently had an electrician over at the house to install additional dedicated lines into my listening room. We got to talking about isolation transformers and subpanels and fancy breaker switches and he was quite knowledgeable about all of these things and basically thought they were all unnecessary or overkill other than maybe a smaller isolation transformer in the listening room. He stressed that the major determinant of clean power is where you are in relation to the closest outdoor power transformer and how or if your neighbors are polluting the power before it comes to you.
