Shunyata Hydra

I'm looking to purchase a used Hydra power conditioner. As I understand there have been 3 versions produced so far, the latest being the new Hydra 8. Would appreciate if someone could enlighten me on the difference between first and second series of Hydra's and how I would be able to physically differentiate them (where possible). Thanks

I have perhaps a dumb question as to the connections for the Hydra. Do you guys run all your gear (amp(s)/pre-amp/sources) through a single hydra which is obviously connected to a single wall outlet?

Thanks everyone.

I wired three independent armor shielded 10g – 20amp circuits to my A/V closet where all my gear is. I don't have a lot of stuff (minimalist approach), but I figured one circuit for the front power amp(s), one for the sources & pre/pro, and the last for the rear and side amp(s) [this being a home theater and listening room].

I am still trying to figure out the differences between the various shunyata hydra models currently offered other than the number of outlets, and their respective prices. However, maybe all I need is one, and run everything through it.
