| Isolation transformer benefits? I don't think you would hear an improvement, or at least it wouldn't be worth the investment of the isolation transformer. I'd hold as is and enjoy the music. I assume you are using some high end AC outlets? | |

| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Gammajo,I replaced the 2.3's with a pair of Legacy Signature III speakers that I purchased new from Legacy. I noticed different mids and highs.
