The current ratings of those isolation products (800VA and 1,000VA) are more than overkill for the intended use. I doubt either of those preamps draw as much as 50VA. I use DIY balanced power with my main system. Each component is fed by its own dedicated 250VA balanced isolation transformer.
Equitech Son of Q vs. BPT
What is the general consensus regarding using these power isolation products. Usage would be for phono amp (Aesthetix IO Signature) and preamp (Octave Jubilee) on a 20 amp dedicated circuit. I think I am sold on using these types of products for my most sensitive components and only wish to address power isolation. I use Isotek Gemini power isolation strips for all AC duties except for the amps which are plugged into the wall directly. The wall outlets are Teslaplex SE Cryo.
My goal is to ensure that I am ridding any external pollutants which may enter into the source components and also to protect from voltage spikes and noise at the same time. From what I have read, I am being swayed more to the Equitech Son of Q Sr (20amp) power isolation transformer.
Thanks in advance.
