.....the Power Ports in the UO's, while certainly MUCH better that the hardware store budget outlets, can sound "course" and "forward" when compared to premium outlets such as Oyaide or Furutech.A question if I may, have U upgraded or changed the outlet(s) that feeds your UPC/UO's?
Personally, I would upgrade the wall outlet(s) that feed power to your system before dumping money on a new/different power conditioner. I would then upgrade the outlets in the UO's.
Bottom line, it all starts at the wall and not giving the outlet(s) that feed power to your system due attention is handicapping your system right from the get-go.
JMHO of course,
Follow Ups:
I'm using PS Audio power ports in the wall outlets as well. I still feel that component isolation is a key factor and that no power conditioning device that powers several components will sound as good as when powering one single component, providing you're system has enough resolution to pick this up. I just received an email from a guy who is using four PS Audio P500 conditioners to supply power to four separate components because he feels that componet isolation from conditioners is important in optimizing sound quality. I may try a Shunyata conditioner out of curiousity but I don't expect my findings to change.
