Shunyata Venom PS8 Power Distributor?

Has any one tried the new PS8 Power Distributor from Shunyata? Just picked a new viper ztron power cord, and was shocked by the difference it made on the amp! I have a cary tube amp and 303T SACD cd player. I am probably going to try Venom-HC Power Cord for the cd player or another viper. But need a power distributer/ surge protector first. I was in the dealer and he suggested the Shunyata Venom PS8 Power Distributor. Because of the current my amp draws plus the cd player and price! I was Considering the HYDRA AV POWER CONDITIONER over then the venom PS8 but people say the the Hydra AV is a power conditioner. Which most people say is not suited for tube amps.

-Has any one tried both the Shunyata Hydra AV over the venom ps8?
-Whats the differences?
-Would The Ztron Viper power cord make the venom ps8 perform better then the Venom HC cord that is matched for it?

I have a Shunyata Venom PS8 and love it. Wonderful Musicality and increase in dynamics. Did not dull the dynamics, blunt the highs, and color the sound like PS Audio P-5 and Dectet did.

Now on to a dedicated power line...

Interesting! I have a shunyata Defender on order and while the PS8 isn't in the budget at the moment, I've decide not to try a WireWorld Matrix II but went ahead and ordered the Cable Pro Revelation II. I have a Dectet in the system now and while I like it its time to see what else is out there. I have two 20amp dedicated lines one with a PS Audio Soloist Premier inwall conditioner and the other has only the Premier receptical.I'm wondering if I'll find the same conclusions or if the PS8 is needed to do so but if the Cable Pro pulls it off it will be more than half saved!
