Will power conditioning really help?

Been reading alot about SB2 etc and how having clean power really makes an impact on sound quality. Can someone go in depth for a newbie and explain why this is so? Do I just need a power conditioner or is there work to be done on the actual oulets and power system? How should I incoporate these benefits in my current system?

Modded SB2

P.S. Due to room constraints and lack of space I do have both my computer system and audio and t.v cable box. What can I do in this situation to improve power?

Thanks everyone.

It is simply the garbage in garbage out principle.

Electricity come in from the wall, and your audio gear converts that electricity, which goes to your speakers causing them to move and create sound. If the electricity has a sound already (noise), then that will affect the conversion that happens in the audio gear.

Plug a television into the same wall plug as a refrigerator while it is running and see what happens to the picture and the sound.

Yes $200 can do something even brand new. For $200 you can buy two Blue Circle BC86Mk3 power pillows. The Mk3 versions have double the filtering of the older models, so they are as good as four of the older power pillows.

Sorry for the sales pitch, but I happen to sell them simply because they work, period. Check other threads.

You can also contact Phil at Sonic Spirits who is your local Blue Circle dealer. Maybe he can let you demo a pair. For $300 can get you the basic BC606 Music Bar which is a power bar with the filtering of 2 of those power pillows.
