Power strip recommendation.

I have had the PS Audio PPP in my system for sometime now with absolutely no noticeable sonic improvements. I just had 2 20amp outlets wired directly into the panel with 10awg gauge wire with i must say better and satisfying sonic results. Much reduced noise floor. As far as i can see/hear, the power entering my home is already very stable and "clean".

Long story short, i will remove the PPP but would still need a hight quality power strip or perhaps a passive device like Audience but i am skeptical that such passive devices would reap any sonic benefits either. I am looking for the BEST return/value for money and i believe that the power strip option is the way to go. My equipment is all ARC Reference.

Suggestions welcomed.

Smofatt,

If I had such nice gear as you, I would look at one of the APC battery back up devices (S10 or S15 only). They are not power strips per se, but they will ensure that nasty surges will not harm amps, etc. I recently got the S10 for $250(a steal) for my tube amps. It is way cool, has no negative effect on sound, and means I don't live in mortal fear that a summer storm or ice on the lines will damage anything, etc.
