I have a Proceed Avp and some Aragon amplifiers. I am using a brickwall power conditioner and have noticed an improvement on video but can not detect on on audio. My dealer has an Avp connected to a Richard Grey power conditioner. I had him connect it and then unconnect it and again same result. Noticed improvements with video but could hear none with audio.I have read that you need more than in connected together to obtain a large improvement. I do not know and from what I can see the cost would not be worth it. A power conditioner will not stop hiss. As the others have stated it is mostly something else, probabely the amp. I had a noticeable hiss when I was using my old amp but the Aragons have are quiet.
Power Conditioner Confusion-Help!!
I have a Proceed AVP HT processor; EAD Powermaster 2000 amp, CD,MSB Link DAC, DVD, VCR, Phono, FM, Subs,Vienna Acoustic speakers,JPS Superconductor 2 speaker cables, connected to Monster HTS 2000 power conditioner. I recently cleared up a cable induced power hum by grounding & Mondial M.A.G.I.C. cable filter that I purchased based on the advice I received on this forum (see Troubleshooting Discussions). I am left with a speaker hiss with the EAD only powered up that I'd like to eliminate. Will a power conditioner or line filter do the job. Monster HTS 2000 is not if that is what is needed. I've read the reviews and tech data on Bybee Power Conditioners and Quantum Filters, CinePro 20/30; Tice Power Block III A/B/C; Richard Gray The Power Company, and PS Audio. I'd like to hear your experience and recommendations. Am I wasting my time on these things and need to look elsewhere for a solution? If not, what is the right one to buy. I don't have dealers for these in my area. Thanks for all your good advice.
