I see several of these conditioners in inmate systems. They are fairly inexpensive. Do they make a difference? Do you still like yours? I need something for my CD Players. Do you use the filtered outlets? or non?

OK, I don't have direct experience with this particular product, but recently tried my first Furu outlet and it's great! Major improvement on very tweaked P&S outlets.I've done quite a bit of tweaking and DIYing of AC - outlets, strips, PCs, filters, etc. So I'm very very convinced of the high value of having the right implementation of the quality products, even when I can only afford to partially duplicate them by DIY.
Having looked at this particular product's design, I'd say it will work quite well, IMHO. In fact, had I the extra dough I would have bought one of these almost immediately following my first Furu outlet trial.
As to active filtering or not, that would depend upon the design. Many filtering schemes actually limit dynamics and therefore aren't a good idea sonically. Except for digital, I'd stay away from what I see on the market. That does not mean that it can't work or that I know all these products; just relating my best understanding and experience so far.
I do use a DIY Jon Risch Digital Isolation Transformer. It works great for digital (one device pretty much max), but would not for analog, FWIW.

I don't use the Furutech eTP-80. But I do use Furutech outlets,plugs and connectors with very good results.
I made most of my line conditioners. Also my mono-amps are plugged directly into the Furutech wall outlets.I just did a Google search on the Furutech eTP-80 and found it has been very well received. This appears to be a tweaked out version of the eTP-60, plus more outlets and filters added.
For a power cord I would get a VH Audio flavor 4(or Flavor 2) with Furutech connectors on both ends. Change your wall outlet to a Furutech and let the music flow.....I would buy one if I did not already have a conditioner. Try one and keep us posted.
