There are many excellent power conditioners on the market. Furman is only one of many and Erik_Squires recommends this brand mostly because he owns one and likes what it does. I use Shunyata and many others use other brands. There is an Audioquest Niagara 1200 available used here for around $700-800.00 which is an excellent value as well.
Good small/single outlet power conditioner for preamp.
Anyone know what’s out there?
I am demoing a very nice preamp but it, for currently an unknown reason, does not play well with my Puritan PSM156 conditioner. The pre exhibits noise/hum from the speakers with any source ICs plugged into it.
But the preamp straight to the wall is hum free and all is fine.
If I wanted to keep this pre, straight to the wall is not ideal. So I am preliminarily curious what nice small/single outlet power conditioners are out there for me to consider…
thanks

@jriggy I am a Synergistic Research dealer, so take it for what you will, but they make a PowerCell One for plugging one single component direct into the wall. I’ve personally been a big fan of the PowerCell series long before I became an SR dealer, moving from higher end PS Audio conditioners. The PowerCell One retails for $1,095 and may be worth looking into if you are just looking to separate your preamp from the rest of your system’s conditioning. |
