How much dirt is too much dirt


in regards to power conditioning?  I’ve always found better sound when turning off the tv, I thought because of the distraction (mental thing). Recent purchase of an EMI meter (Trifield EM100) shows the tv with 15 - 20 mv added noise to a base of 25 to 50 mv line noise, time of day dependent.  I sit here, close my eyes, flip the tv on and off, and hear real music tv off, painfully disrupted audio joy, tv on.  Then contemplate noise figures.  Specifically a post where a claimed drop of 200 something to 78 mv made their day.  I’ve never seen posted what is an excellent, good or poor number.  Anyone?  My real question being, will a line conditioner lower my power line dirt enough to be worthwhile?

Some knowledgeable people have said, for best results unplug everything in your video system - unplugged not simply turned off...it works in my system, and is obviously a free tweak...I'm on an excellent power grid, and power conditioning has only had a negative sonic impact for me ...
