Isolation Transformer OR Power conditioner


HI
I have a pair of tube monoblocks that i'm plugging into a power bar for now (limited outlets) but looking to upgrade my power situation

Dedicated lines is not an option at this time
My digital is currently being plugged into a balanced conditioner

I need your help in determining what's best for my setup
Mainly my Tube monoblocks

I don't trust PS Audio nor any manufacturer that does not publish noise reduction specs. That's something very measurable.

I have used DeZorel from Yugoslavia and they make KILLER power filters with guaranteed specs & tolerances. Their downloads section has good info:

Sean, DeZorel units do not use trannies. Never have. I almost cried when I had to return the loaner. Lak still has one, I think.
Where are you these days, Sean? In tha shoppe? I'm @ my parents' recovering from foot surgery...have some 'free' time these days to surf the net.
Actually, Mr. Audiofeil, I do live rent free at my uncle & aunt's vacation cottage in the Eastern Caribbean. They were not using it anymore & I take care of their property. It's mile and a half from the beach and five miles from the rain forest. It's along a one way, one lane service road and two of the neighbors are young cops who check out their homes driving the patrol cars at any time day or night.

At first, I was sad the living room was too small to let my Modwright Swans M-1 spread their wings, but Mr. VenHaus--the wannabe--encouraged me stating that I would get great sound regardless. I finally pulled my laser ruler from the toolbox and dialed them in the nearfield. To my surprise, the near field has let my Marantz Esotec class A monoblocks work their magic. Since they're only 30W now I can hear all the microdynamics without room reflections reinforcement. Everything has a purpose. The Modwright Swans will stay near field regardless where I go...

BTW, my work e-mail ends with @dhs.gov.

You need to get a life--but first you need to learn how to be a professional.
