Power Conditioner/Surge Protector Options


I know it’s not cables, but be I consider the discussion relevant snake oil to cables!…lol

Is there any reason why a Triplite LCR2400 shouldn’t perform just as competently as say an Audioquest Niagara or Furman Elite 15PFi?!

I’m mostly interested in responses that have some scientific backing rather than your personal experiences (unless you are an EE, etc.). TIA!

boostedis,

I’m not sure of your budget so here is my opinion. I somewhat agree with what has been posted. But I gotta say the AudioQuest Niagara 7000 exceeds every type of conditioner that I have tried. In sound quality that is. And isn’t that what it all about with this hobby?

Look up what it consists of. Heck look at pictures of the internals, it is more than just a surge protector or a bias negotiator with plugs.

Up until this conditioner I also thought that the power amps sound better straight into the wall. But with the 7000, my mono block amps, subwoofers, even my 85" Samsung is better plugged into the big Niagara.7000.

No scientific backing just experience, exactly the opposite of what you requested, sorry.  Since you are a relatively new poster, don’t start off with a closed mind, try it.

I have used several iterations of Shunyata, Synergistic, PS Audio etc. None of them worked well with my power amps, that is until I tried the Niagara 7000.

boostedis,

I doubt if you will find the scientific explanation between units as you state. Each company makes components based on their ideas, and they all think they are the best. Specifications, numbers, statistics can lie, let your ears be the judge.

Good Luck.
