PS Audio 300 vs Tice powerblock II


I have been using the tice powerblock II in my system for some time now. In the last year there has been so much talk about the PS Audio stuff that I'm wondering if I should replace the Tice. I currently run my Aragon 8008ST amp throught the Tice which I know I could not do with the PS Audio powerplants. It would be for the front-end only. My amp would be on a dedicated curcuit with nothing else on it. The front end would be on another curcuit.
Does anybody have any advice, or have you tried both?
Thanks for your insight.

The PS Audio P-300 is a fantastic device for front-end components. However, connecting both digital and analog equipment into the P-300 (when powered up simultaneously) appears to result in an edge/slight brightness in sound. I can only imagine that digital noise (emanating from the digital source) wreaks havoc with the power supply of the P-300 (or other). The two pair of outlets on the back of the P-300, to the best of my knowledge, are not isolated from one another. If digital and analog equipment are to be used together, consider a PC (or PS Audio's Ultimate Outlet?, or similar)that minimixes/reduces/eliminates digital noise from re-entering the power supply (P-300).
This is similarly true if digital components are connected directly to a wall-socket. Digital AC power noise must be minimized or eliminated for best performance/sound.
