I tried a "Conditioner" that fellow club members swore by.
After a couple weeks of listening I felt the sound had deteriorated
but I was not sure how. I brought a friend with years of experience and
great listening skills over. First he heard it for a few minutes with the device connected. Then we disconnected it and within 5 seconds his face lit up and he said the whole sound stage had opened up when the conditioner was out. Luckily I was able to return it.
I do have two dedicated home runs to my system. One for Audio one for Video. Perhaps without those runs the conditioner would have had value.
Meantime it is one less piece to bother with. Yeah!!
