clarkjohnsen,Going in, I had the same qualms as you concerning the power at this kind of show, but relying on the two vendors' assesmment, the quality was not seen as a problem in this case.
Power conditioners are not my favourite solution either- my Audio Research stuff definitely doesn't benefit- except in security against power disasters, but these fellows showing their $100,000+ systems thought all was well and I defer to the expert opinion that the quality as well as quantity of the electrons were acceptable. If the power had been notably poor- or even marginal, the tendency would be for the vendors to complain and they could then blame the power for anything lacking in their repsective gear. This was not the case plus I believe the vendors came prepared for the worst.
"Blowback" I'm not familiar with, but there was substantial acoustic interference between some rooms as sound pressures were generally high.
Serious power devices: I saw in the Isoclean room a tempting and beautifully made electrical subpanel especially for audio- all heavy solid copper and gold plating inside- in a substantial -and lockable! box and only $1,400.
