PLC for TV...

I've not modified any of my CRT tube televisions to accept aftermarket power cords, but I've found balun based and isolation transformer based power line conditioners to be very effective towards a better picture (much greater visual improvement than a video cable upgrade, IME). I don't know how a PLC will affect a Plasma or LCD TV's picture, though.

A PS Audio UPC-200 (essentially a dual bank PS Audio Ultimate Outlet) balun based PLC serves my main system, while Powervar 4.0 / Model ABC402-11 isolation transformer based PLC's do service in my two secondary systems.

A used PS Audio Ultimate Outlet (single bank duplex) can usually be found selling for $175-200 on Audiogon:

A used Powervar 4.0 / Model ABC402-11 (480VA maximum) auction can sometimes be won on eBay for as low as $35:
