In Reply to: Surge protection and power conditioners QUESTIONS???? posted by Time_Stands_Still on February 23, 2007 at 02:43:00:
You might try a little searching as this question comes up periodically and there have been some good discussions on technical points in the past e.g.http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.mpl?forum=general&n=247435
http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.mpl?forum=general&n=360740But (1) to echo ppopp below, much depends on what the AC is like in your locality and in your house and how your particular gear reacts, so nobody here can tell you definitely what'll work; (2) depending on the design of your amp, power conditioners may limit its dynamics, so some folks prefer to plug amps right into the wall; (3) standard products made for surge protection are not aimed at audiophile power-conditioning.
The Monster "power bars," though arguably overpriced, are not bad things and if you can find a vendor who will let you return it, you could try one out. There are a number of good audiophile conditioners out there, but they're quite a bit more expensive and if you're not aware of a problem (you don't specify a problem you're trying to fix) you might hold off.
