What should I expect after installing a new power management system?


Trying to decide between Shunyata, synergistic, transparent, Niagara from audio quest. They cost between 5000 and $8000. What can I expect when I plug my various components into this pricey box.?  Plan on also getting several higher end power cables. I thought about buying a regenerator but didn't feel this was a good thing

I have heard many things about noise floor and current clean up and a new one, improved transients.

Anyone buy a new power system lately?

To paraphrase the hippocratic oath, do no harm.  A power system that limits spike current will kill your systems ability to respond to dynamics, especially on bass.  I don't use a system.  I do use very heavy (10awg) power cords.

Power cords are simple.  they are big pipes for current.

Power conditioners are a differnt animal. they all have inductive loads that resist voltage and current changes.  It surprises me that high end systems can be designed that limit current.  Just make sure you choose one that does no harm.
