Power Cord & Power Conditioner Recommendations


I just put together a new system:

Rega Planar 3
Rega Fono Pre
Naim Uniti Star
GoldenEar Triton One.R
Wireworld Oasis Cables & Interconnects

There is so much conflicting information and out there about power cords and conditioners and so many manufacturers and products. Any advice about power cords / conditioners? Do they make a big difference? Recommendations for this system (I don't want to overkill $$$ wise)? Also of note the Tritons have powered subwoofers which each need their own cord. Any input would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Maybe take a look at my profile.

I’ve been using the Monster power platinum (8 outlet) for about 5 years now. Prior to that I had a Furman power conditioner (stopped working one day).

Look for power conditioners that offer replacement in the case of damage to electronics (mine is up to 600k)

Austere is another good brand.

A power conditioner cannot improve the performance characteristics of any component; it can only help by maximizing performance.

For power cords, anything made by a Japanese manufacturer or hospital grade is ideal.

Good luck with finding the right power cord and power conditioner.
Regarding power conditioning, yup - you’re also right. Some amplifiers and other components can be sensitive to voltage sags or spikes from unregulated power (mainly high frequency swtiching noise). This is where the voltage regulation aspect of a power conditioner comes in to play. There are also radio frequencies to consider that literally exist within wall sockets... :/

Since we must use our ears in this hobby, any upgrades we make along the way are easy to detect.

The power in my home is already clean (some other proper brand) and the internal wiring is high-quality. The home was originally built by a certified construction expert & electrician) who worked for a tough client!!
