Power Conditioners

Protecting your stuff against any electrical enomalies should be everyone’s priorities if you ever had to deal with a claim with your insurance provider, sometimes you are not in good hands . If your not sure how well your stuff would be protected during a lightning storm plain common sense should tell you just unplug it .

If a power strip gives you piece of mind great however like Atmosphere said power strips are not conditioners . Using conditioners , re-generation and transformer based over the past 30 years I’ve been disappointed with many manufacturers claims and enthusiastic reviews however I finally learned none of these devices are going to work as advertised for everyone.

Just recently I tried out , “home trial“ the conditioner and Ac cords from Synergistic Research they worked at dropping the noise floor noticeably well and as a added bonus they provide a decent quality power cord with their line of conditioners . My previous Inakustic 3500 conditioner and Inakustic power cords we’re replaced by SR conditioner.

Having lived in large cities through out most of my life I’ve noticed a large change with noisy AC having moved to a small community.

I’ve spent lots of money over the decades on conditioning , regeneration and what have you and was never content for long always looking to tweek and upgrade something.
Currently we live in a small community and I’m much more content with my system then I can ever remember though I use Synergistic conditioner and Ac cords through out a further drop in the noise floor was immediately noticed something that wasn’t so evident living in a city .

ecrotty if you live in a large city try out regenerator and transformer base conditioner if you can. 

You just gotta experiment, Erik your recommendation of the Furmans Lift and SMP I tried , I bought two of them one for a modem and switch ect on a separate Ac line and I tried the other one on my tv and digital cable box ect .
I then tried it my digital front end components for a few days and didn’t really notice any appreciable difference in the noise floor overall transparency. The digital video feed to my tv is excellent though with the Furman conditioner it was very difficult to actually see any difference in clarity ,contrast ,  color and what have you .

Sure on a budget and keeping your components safe I guess they would be great for the piece of mind however in my home they really did nothing though the Synergistic conditioner and power cords I tried did make a immediate difference with my tv and playback with my digital front end components though at many times the cost of the Furman conditioners and I still use the Furman on my modem ect for now .
