You really owe it to yourself to check out the Platinum Power PP-1 (see http://tnt-audio.com/accessories/platinum-pp1_e.html and call Gary at Esoteric Audio in Scottsdale 480-946-8128 to see if he can get you one on approval). I've had mine for over two years and have everything, plugged into it, including my Rowland Model Twelve monoblocks and the two 400 watt sub amps in my Vandersteen Fives. It replaced a Tice IIIc and runs circles around the Tice. Don't be put off by the fact that the PP-1 is transformer based. It is engineered properly and dramatically improves the performance of my system and I have never been able to detect any negative side effects, as I did with the Tice and the PS Audio P-300 (on source only for the PS Audio).
The PP-1 is not well known. The guy who builds it is an unassuming retired electrical engineer, who spent years designing the unit for his own use. He has very modest financial ambitions, so does little to market it. But it is an absolute jem, and surely the last power conditioner you should ever have to buy. I've been an audiophile for over 30 years, and for most of that time was very turned off by line conditioners. But I whole-heartedly endorse the PP-1. I live in Phoenix where it is built, but I have no financial interest in Frank's company or any dealer who sells it. I just wish more people knew about it, so they could enjoy the same benefits I have derived from it.
