High Fidelity MC-6 Power Distributor vs. Synergistic Research V8 Powerblock?

use an isolation transformer & plug everything into ONE simple powerstrip that is plugged into the trans.

That's essentially what I have now; CPT Equi=Core 300 at the wall plugged into a Tara AD/6 Powerscreen strip. I'm thinking about something to replace the Tara. I also have a High Fidelity MC-0.5 plugged into the same duplex as the CPT, and like what it does. Thinking the MC-06 would give me more of that. I also like the other SR UEF stuff I have (Blue Fuses, Black PC).

@tommylion, I own the MC-6 Power Distributorneither but I've never heard the Synergistic Research V8 Powerblock. I do own and use many of the HFC products (higher end interconnects, speaker cables, digital cable, power cords, MC-0.5's, MC-6 Distributor and the Hemisphere). I'm going to call what one achieves with HFC the "HFC House Sound". Seems like when we add a product from HFC it creates more of the House Sound. If you like that sound seems like the MC-6 might be the way to go. If no one answers your question and owns both why not call one of the many stores that sell both and get their opinion since they both cost about the same amount.
BTW: You asked a great question! I like the SR Black and Blue fuses also!

Talk to Alfred at https://highend-electronics.com
He carries both brands that you are inquiring about.

Thanks lak, good idea. I got my SR fuses and a few other things from there. Excellent service. When I’m ready to buy either one, I’ll get it from him. I’ve always got a list going of stuff to do with my system. So many things to try, and me without an unlimited budget 😉 CT speaker cables are probably next in line.

I don't own either piece but I do have a CPT 1800 and as great as it's been my system really went up in performance when I added several of the HF mc-0.5's. Not saying what you should do, but if you like what the one mc-0.5 is doing at the outlet where your CPT 300 is at and want more of that sound then maybe just getting more mc-0.5's is the way to go. To me they have been the most amazing addition to my home stereo than anything I can remember. Just my two cents.

Thanks t_ramey, I've thought of that as well.

tommylion, 

I agree with t_ramey,
I now have 16 of the MC-05's on my 3 dedicated lines and I am using a CPT 1800 and a 300.
