Does anyone know if this is a onetime event or is periodic maintenance required?  
A $250 Power Conditioner?
I have one of these Entech noise analyzer that I purchased maybe 2 years ago based on a previous discussion, so I tested things out. On setting up on an unfiltered outlet, it would only have an affect from the one Puron that is within 5 feet of m... 
A $250 Power Conditioner?
@amtprod "Again, $35 and it does the same thing." How would you know this to be true? I would assume that there are many factors contributing to dirtying ones electricity. What do you base your belief of identical performance on?     LP   
A $250 Power Conditioner?
@mikeba316 I currently am using 9 with a few additional that I am currently evaluating. My system concern is becoming too dynamic which is so source material and location dependent. My best guess to this point for my rig is somewhere between 10 ... 
A $250 Power Conditioner?
The doubters of this product needs to audition them in their own environment. I’m pretty sure Mark at Vera-fi offers a satisfaction guarantee testing. Most in our hobby will find the pricing reasonable. I was very skeptical early on, and even had...

New Project RS2T transport
@astronomer63  I've lost power several times this year with my RS2-T always being in standby mode. It now seems the best approach under these circumstances is to just leave the unit on. When I first encountered an outage with the unit in standby,... 
Puron Plug-In AC Power Conditioner; Impressions 😁

Puron Plug-In AC Power Conditioner; Impressions 😁
My experience with the Puron conditioners to this point has taken a slightly different course. The first unit I received convinced me also of the build quality and performance of this small but extremely effective device. Wonderful product. Afte... 
Scary white substance on Polyethylene Sleeves
