Re: Recommendation for Power Conditioner/Surge Protector

"An isolation transformer gives you a pure sine wave"
Just like any transformer an isolation transformer passes the same waveform out as comes in, or at least it it should. The advantage to an isolation transformer comes when you wire it to give a balanced output, at which point the output has the same common mode rejection characteristics as balanced lines. To take maximum advantage of that it should be mounted as close as possible to the AC panel. What works even better is a 220 to 110 transformer, that way any junk picked up on the AC transmission lines is also eliminated via common mode rejection.
