Is it ok for tube amp directly to the outlet?


Hi,

Do you think it's better to plug my tube amp directly to outlets rather than going through power conditioner? Can a power surge damage my tubes or amps?

I plug my Cary 805AE in the power conditioner now, but I want to try them without power conditioner to see if I can get better sound in term of dynamic. Do most of you using power conditioner for your tube amps?

Thanks!

Another recommendation here to go straight into the wall. If you don't already have a dedicated electrical line coming to the outlet, do that before reverting back to a power conditioner.
