Power regenerator vs conditioner
The AudioQuest Niagara 7000 is seamless and (for me) has done the trick. It does not touch the sound. Have compared with direct into wall and all’s well. The AudioQuest Niagara 5000 should preform the same as the 7000. The price for the 7000 has g...

Using a Primakuna PROLOGUE CLASSIC CD player against a Lumin T2 two of us could hear no difference in “regular” tracks and thought “high res” streaming sounded richer. Naturally two ageing men with arguably not the best hearing may not be definite...

Dedicated power
@spenav How to wire your house for good power is excellent. It should be required reading. Adding a whole house surge protector (or go Taurus, etc.) to your to do list something to consider. 
Dedicated power
I’d go twin 20amp heavy gauge shielded lines and use Synergistic Research Orange outlets or hospital grade outlets on up. Lots of beefy ones out there. If you do nothing else getting rid of stock wall outlets should help. I could not run new lines...
