Hospital / Industrial Grade Isolation Transformers for AC


Apparently using a hospital / industrial grade isolation transformer is considered by many to be the best *cost effective* device for your AC. For those in the know, what brand, specs, etc. are recommended?

I saw a big thread somewhere not long ago but I could never figure out what to buy

Isolation transformers are a good idea especially if you have noisy AC lines. I would take it a step further and go with a Balanced isolation transformer, which thru CMR, will reduce the noise floor even further.  Just be sure to size it with some headroom for peaks.
I use an 1800 watt BPIT and only drawing about 300 watts which allows for headroom. they run cool and silent and don’t use snake oil..  just physics..  IME
There is a magnetic power conditioner on Agon selling for $50K.
$50,000 to plug into..  I’m trying to keep an open mind as I LOL.
