Power/voltage Regulator


I have a McIntosh tube system and would like to know if a voltage regulator is necessarily to maintain its voltage. Can it really improve the sound quality like others claimed?

It will also depend on how unstable the voltage is in your area . When I was using a power stabilizer ,with read out , the voltage would drop by 15V at times . Base voltage here is 117 . One would think thats got to make a difference with many components .
Thanks fellow members. I decided to get the Furman AR15 II 120 v voltage regulator and through this responses that explains a lag of detail sound at certain hours of the day. I am currently using Panamax power conditioner and would like to ask if this can be use in conjunction with a voltage regulator. What do you think?
Yes . the regulator should be up stream of the conditioner , they may work well together . I have A Panamax 5510 , now being used for video , One of the better conditioners in my opinion . Make sure you listen closely before making your mind up on anything .
Thanks fellow member. I went through the specs of this Furman AR-15 and they already have a built in power conditioner. So, maybe I won't be using it anyway. However, I'll try it and see if any change of sound. I'll keep u posted.
