Interesting. After your comment I decided to plug my Lessloss PCs connected to a dac and cdp directly into wall socket. Results were spectacularly disappointing - much more crimped, flat, less dynamic, less bass and nowhere near the natural staging of instruments. I plugged the Lessloss PCs back into the Moldwire powerstrip that is connected to Adept Response which is connected to Variac which is connected to wall outlet and the magic returned. The power outlets are dedicated to stereo but even by separating analog and digital I didn't like the wall outlet. I don't know how much is AdeptResponse and how much variac, or how much is just my imagination.

I'm always fascinated by people's experiences with their systems and how different the results can be.
