Power conditioners and wall warts

Is there any point in plugging a wall wart into a power conditioner, other than surge protection? Could it be a negative thing to do?

Audible results most often with turntables. Power conditioners can also ensure the power going into the switching power supply remains clean and stable.

Even with a linear power supply. You'll want to make sure to keep the power cable away from other cables, particularly if run parallel to other cables, if that is something you experience.
