THE WALL---Why?


No, this does not refer to Pink Floyd or Donald Trump! 
  I was just wondering why audio dealers tell you to plug the power amplifier into the wall, rather than into my PS Audio power plant? What harm would it do to plug it into the Power Plant; it has plenty of capacity?! Would I risk any damage if I plugged my power amplifier direct into the power plant? 
just curious... thanks.   ---Steve

I was advised to use a voltmeter and gauge my outlets over time. It was pretty much constant (+/-1) all throughout the day and night for several days (including weekends). 
Any filtering I used diminished things so I went straight into the wall with my amp and everything improved. I have to add that this only happened after I upgraded my power cords. 
Everything else runs through my Blue Circle Thingee and sounds great.
Plugging my SACD player into the wall didn't improve it's performance so that, too, went into the conditioner.
I've yet to try a power regenerator but that is too expensive a proposition for me at this time. You'll only know if you try.

All the best,
