Richard Gray owners ISO..

Hi all,

I'm looking at the RGPC 1200 C power conditioner/surge protector gear for my mid hifi system. Rotel preamp, and Rotel power amps(Class D), Def Tech speakers, SVS subs(2), Oppo BDP-95, Rotel RCD-1072 cd player and an apple computer.

I notice RGPC don't have coaxial surge protection on there units. Any reason why there is no coaxial surge protection? I see they sell it as an accessory. Secondly, can anyone share their experiences with RGPC. I'm using a Furman PFi 15 power conditioner right now but would like to take advantage of the non current limiting feature of the Richard Gray products. It looks well built and if you have it in an audio rack does it hold up well in a rack?

Thanks in advance for responding. Much appreciated.

Point well taken Eastein. So you decided to keep the RGPC 400's because it improved the audio on your mac mini server? I too run a mac mini through my Rotel preamp as well. Any tips when auditioning power conditioners or is it better to ensure the dealer has a good return/exchange policy, so that I can audition it in my apartment for a period of time?

Thanks for your response Eastein.

Thanks for the information to both of you. I was wondering since RGPC products don't have coaxial protection built in to their equipment isn't that self defeating to the power surge protection it offers? As I understand it, power surges can go through cable and phone lines as well. Can anyone explain why they don't have built in surge protection for cable and phone lines like you see on other models? I see it sold as an accessory and also it is offered as a built in surge protection on their Extender Pro model. There must be a reason. Thanks again Audiogon Forum members for your response.
