I have had good results plugging my cd player into a Furman IT 15 amp balanced power conditioner, which is on a different line from my other components.
My other components are on a dedicated line and I use upscale power cords and conditioners from the same company.
Previously the cd player was in the power conditioner on the dedicated line with all the other gear, but slotted into the digital in receptacle.
The difference?
The sound from CD is now more dimensional,less flat,there's more space between the instruments and voices are more distinct from one another.
The sound has less of the digital edge or glare that it once had, and in this sense is closer to the sound of my analog set up.
One side note, I had been using the Furman on my old RPG TV thinking it was pretty good.
It's apparant now it wasn't and so it's back doing a better job with the cd player.
