Do they make that much diffrence, im looking to tweak my system before buying new speakers. Should i buy new or used,do they break down as they get older?

If you don't already have them, I'd recommend installing 20-amp dedicated lines first. Cheap relative to the better power conditioners, and at least you'll know you're starting with a good baseline to compare power conditioners (if you even feel you need one afterwards). I was going to buy a power conditioner but the guys here at a'gon were pretty universal in their opinion of getting the dedicated lines installed first, and I'm glad I did (also added Porter Ports). My system is overall much more enjoyable to listen to, and I think I'm in a much better position to evaluate power conditioners at this point.

That said, I was looking at Audience because they don't use MOVs that are said to potentially degrade over time in terms of power protection, but I'm also very interested in the Synergistic Powercell that seems to have a pretty happy client base here. Best of luck.
An electrician. I did the same thing as one of my first upgrade steps. $150. including parts in my case.
