What's my next step in AC conditioning??


How do I get my system's background to be quieter without losing dynamics (or adding brightness)?
I currently have 6 components plugged into a Monster HTS 2000 plugged into a standard double wall outlet. If I plug my CJ MV-55 directly into the wall outlet, I lose dynamics.
What's the next step:
An audio grade wall outlet? Which one would be best for me?
Upgrade from my HTS 2000?
Thanks in advance!

I'd start with a good outlet. Search on some comments by LAK. He seems to have done the most research, via his ears, on this topic.

I've tried Hubbels from Home depot, PS Audio Power ports, and Porter Ports from AlbertPorter here on audiogon.

For under $40...the porterports are a steal, IMO, and in my system. Better dynamics, more queit background.

Your amp might be best plugged in outside of the conidtioner. The front end components only into the conditioner. After expiramenting...I sold my conditioner for everything...but YMMV.
