ac conditioner
I use the Cinepro AC Line Balancer 10 amp. WOW! My friend and I didn't want to take it home and try it but we were coaxed into it. When we plugged it in, the soundstage was bigger, impact was better, just everything increased a bit. Now, poorly ma... 
Powered sub into Power Conditioner?
My sub is straight into the wall. The MOV's in conditioners or suppressor can clamp current if the sub ask for a lot of it at one time. 
Buzz/hum from amps, NOT from speakers
I'm up in the Seattle area. After the wind storm and major power outages, I have buzzing in all my components, mainly the amp. I actually watched the line crew change out the toasted transformer on the pole. They ran new lines for an 1/8 of a mile...

Is their any way to keep voltage steady?

Power Conditioners
The cinepro really made a big difference. The noise floor was lowered considerably. Also the music seemed to have more impact. Large storage capacity, 1.5 Kva, on the ten amp model. My friend and I both bought one after doing a listening test that... 
Totem forest/hawk value?
I own the Totem forests. I did a side by side comparison with the Audio Physic Tempo III's. The dymanics were much better than the Tempo's. The bottom end is especially good. The Tempo's high end was probably better but overall I thought the Fores...

Simaudio I-5 vs Plinius 8200
I own the Sim I-5. I thought about getting an 8200 for the phono stage and more power but after a side by side comparison, I decided not to. The plinius seems to have a gap between the mids and highs. It can be a little hot on the top end. Looks a...
