Macct sorry for the late response. Have been out the loop lately with work. Anyway my problem with conditioners is that they in many ways take away from the sound. Equi-tech doesn't do this. I don't have any problem cleaning up or providing power which is not full of anomalies, but many of the conditioners will impact highs or lows delivered by good equipment. I would suggest you look at widescreen reviews very thorough review of their reference system. You can see this on their website. They use a combo of equitech power panel such as mine plus richard gray stuff. I have not gone that far but I believe they even limit their use of the gray to digital only and do not mix it with their preamps or amps. Check it out. It is not the last word but informative.
Balanced Power Conditioner, need suggestions...
I currently have a BPT 2 conditioner (on dedicated line w/ upgraded outlet) that accomodates most of my system; amp, preamp, cd player, rptv & line doubler. The addition of the balanced power unit has made the most pronounced impact on the video side. My tv PQ has never been better. On the audio side the improvements are more subtle, more extended bass and quiter background. Overall, very happy with this selection.
My question, I have a dvd player, vcr and satellite receiver that are not in close enough proximity to use the bpt conditioner & are plugged into an inexpensive monster strip. This is not on a dedicated line, but has an upgraded outlet (a porter hubbel). Given the improvements I have already achieved with the bpt, will there be any additional benefit to do the following:
1. add a bpt cpc or ps audio power strip with an extended PC (2.5m) and plug it into the bpt?
2. get a cpc w/ a tranformer or small equitech conditioner for these three devices & plug directly into the wall?
3. leave it alone with the likely improvements being too incremental to be worth it?
Any recommendations or additional suggestions.
thank you.
