Power Conditioners


I have about $5,000 invested in  a 2 channel stereo setup. Marantz PM7000N integrated receiver, Canton Chrono SL596 speakers, Rega P6 table, blue jeans Canare 4S11 cables. Is it worth it to buy a cheap power conditioner/protector like this  https://www.musicdirect.com/power/furman-pst-8-d-digital-power-station or this  https://upscaleaudio.com/collections/power-conditioners/products/pangea-quattro-power-center

Will I be able to hear a difference/is my equipment sensitive enough to notice a difference; or will a typical surge protector suffice? Otherwise, will it be a waste of money to spend money on a low priced conditioner?

Thanks!

My power source is standard residential 110v ... the power is fairly stable with no brown/black out.
Are you sure? If you're correct, your voltage is quite low and out of spec. Nominal voltage in the US is 120VAC ± 5 percent, so you should measure 114VAC minimum.
Anyone who gives you a definitive answer to your question would be speculating. There are too many variables - including the nature of your existing AC power - for anyone to do anything else.

Music Direct has a money-back return policy and they are nice people to work with. So if you're curious, you might want to order from them and decide for yourself.
