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!

I have installed dedicated circuits in my current house and in another previous home in the Midwest. In each case they made a difference my non -audiophile wife could hear.

However, I am now using a lead -acid battery generator and it is much better. It generates a perfect 60hz sine wave. The model i use is a Goal Zero Yeti1250. I would have preferred one of their lithium -ion generators because they are so much lighter.

Based on this experience I should have saved the $$$ and just gone with the regenerator.
