Power conditioner wire gauge? Serious issue


So I just figured out that all the 10 gauge wiring I have may be a problem if the power conditioner I use only uses 14 or 16 gauge wires to connect all those outlets you plug into in the back of those devices.

The specs are not part of the description when you buy Power conditioners.  Everybody recommends a dedicated 10 gauge wire from the panel but fails to consider what power conditioners use. 
 

Is this a serious problem?

Does your system sound better plugged into the wall, or through your power conditioner?  A thief breaks into my house by breaking down my front door, so I buy a much sturdier door and place a motion detector in the front room.  Next, the thief breaks into my house through my back door.  What I want is a secure house and while concentrating on one aspect of security, I ignore the other factors.  You don’t need to call the manufacturer of your power conditioner.  You just need to listen with and without the conditioner.  If next, you question if your conditioner, or another would be better in your system, then listen to both in your system.  Many dealers will loan with deposit, or sell with return privileges.  This isn’t rocket science and none of our opinions are relevant.  Your ears are all that you need.
