To power condition or not


ATC 40 actives on order.  How should I power them?  I've decent Cullen PCs.  Should I plug them directly into the wall socket OR run them through my Furman 15i power conditioner with the other pieces?  Thank you in advance for suggestions, insight and plethora of opinions.

Depends on the total draw of all your devices and the capacity of your household circuit and that of your Furman, which is matched for a 15A circuit.  The Furman manual states a 1300-1700W work capability---about the same as a 15A circuit free of other devices and appliances.  It may be best to limit the demands on your Furman to either the amps in your new speakers or to your other amp or amps, but not both.  Have to favor your front-end devices overall with a mid-size power-on-demand conditioner on a 15A circuit, if that is what you have at the wall.  Could try it all via the Furman at low volume--then try higher.
