Whats better then PS Audio P300? ? ? ? ?

Hello all
I own a PS Audio P300 with multiwave and I am quite pleased with the sound. I have most of my front end plugged into it. My Copland CTA305 preamp, Genisis Digital Lens, Vecteur D2.2 transport all experience an improvement when plugged in to the Powerplant...( my Kora Hermes Dac sounds worse though.) The problem is the thing runs to hot for my room, and seems to be adding about $50 a month to my hydro bill. (the price to pay for a power regenerator). Can anyone recommend a power conditioner that wont detract from the sound the way most conditioners do? I've heard great things about the Shunyata Hydra (a little pricey though), and Audiomagic Stealth....any comments?
Thanks for your help guys

I second the Audio Magic Stealth or Eclipse.
I travelled almost the same route as Warren .
Went from a Chang,to an PS Audio Ulimate outlet combo
to a PS Audio P-300.I thought I hit paydirt.After about
6 months it broke down and found out how good my system sounded without the damm thing.
Along came a spider and it was in the form of Audio Magic but it didn't scare me that it looks cheap and doesn't have the 'professional' review accolades.
What these units do is simply amazing.Soundstage so deep it has no end.Micro dynamics are not hidden as in other forms of conditioning and no colorization.
The best I have come across.And uses no AC power a bonus for sure.
Cheers,Peter

Guys,

I'm already using tons of power conditioning. I've got a Mini Stealth, Bybees, Shaktis, BC86s, and some ERS paper. I'm also using a conditioner with a huge isolation transformer(similar to the BPTs only it's not balanced). Would I further benefit from adding a Digital Stealth for my DVD player or should I go for a "Balanced" conditioner such as the BPT or Blue Circle Music Ring?

Thanks,

Rob

Digital Mini Stealth. It delivered, big time, for my front end...

I loved my Balanced Power BP Jr. II. I didn't like the P300 because it made my tube gear sound like SS--not that there's anything wrong with that! But I generally like the sound of tube gear . . . The BPT JR just gets out of the way and let's my VTL and Rogue do their thing.
