Elevating line conditioners....


Why is it that line conditioners are recommended to be elevated off the floor.
I have also noted this in many system pics, the line conditioner is sitting on an alternative surface.

The elevating of a line conditioner yields benefits from the use of footers, similar to elevating any of the primary components, such as amp or CDP.
There is endless variety in footers with the most traditional seeming to be either cone type designs or vibration absorbing materials such as Herbie's Audio Lab affordable products, which include a variety of hybrid footer ideas.
Telephoning Herbie's may put any of your components onto a good idea :>)
Unless you need electrical storm protection, consider avoiding the traditional conditioner box in favor of the unique Mapleshade Records power strip, which truly justifies the bragging made about it on Mapleshade's website.
