Power Supplies & Performance


Howdy, folks. I’ve read in some posts here-and-there that a power supply can affect the performance of a system, and I was hoping to get some feedback from those of you ’in-the-know’.

My system equipment is below. Can any of you comment about how much, and what sort of, improvement (if any), I might have by removing the Panamax conditioner? My worry is that we have a fair number of power outages in my area, so I don’t want to place the equipment at risk. But if it’s going to make a dramatic improvement, it might be worth considering.

  • Bryston 4B-ST
  • Krell KRC-3
  • HiFiBerry DAC+ Pro
  • Panamax M4300PM
  • Martin Logan ReQuest (2nd Gen)
  • Polk PSW650 Sub
  • Cables: Acoustic Zen all around - Satori to speakers, Matrix Reference to Subwoofer, Matrix Reference XLR to amp, Matrix Reference 2 from DAC to Krell. Experimenting also with Silver Reference 1 and 2 between DAC and Krell to see what I like.
Thanks in advance!

Parabolic, try the Panamax with only your Krell and dac, while placing your Bryston and sub into wall outlets--system should sound better.
