Benefits of power conditioning


I'm just starting to build my first stereo and I was wondering about the benefits of power conditioning, should I use one of these devices? What improvements would one hear?

My system so far consists of:
Speakers: Axiom M3ti
Amp: Blue Circle CS Integrated
Cables: Straightwire Stage (spade terminations)
Stands: Energy CST-M 24", (filled with sand)

Thanks in advance,

It is impossible for anyone to say what you will hear, but some of the effects typically experienced are improved bass, better isolation of sounds, and something commonly refered to as a "blacker background."

This last item refers to a lowering of the grunge that goes unnoticed until it is gone. The sound seems to come from a cleaner source in and around the speakers.

A lot of the improvement is based on the quality of your power to begin with, and the quality of the power conditioner.

So getting back to my statement about "what you will hear" the reason is that no one else has the same power conditions to begin with, so they don't know what you will experience.

Based on my exerience this is something well worth persuing!
Thanks for the comment Nrchy. What kind of power conditioning device do you think is reasonable for my system? I mean, given the cost of my equipment I don't think it makes much sense to go and spend $2000 or more in som PS Audio PC. What are the 'budget'/entry-level/mid fi PC out there?
Since you have the Blue Circle moniker you might consider one of their Music Rings. I'm getting an MR1200, so it should be fun.

Start out with one or two Blue Circle BC86 Mk3 Noisehounds. For $100 each they are the best bang for your buck. Your system is small enough to just get the smallest Music Ring if you are on a budget..
