Power Cord Priority

I came to the same conclusion as Warrenh. Absolutly true: first power conditioning, than powercords. These two elements which are elevating the performance of my system to a very high level and let the equippment I have to show their capabilities.

I agree with Drubin. I did not have good experience with power conditioners made by rotel & monster. These units cost about $200-300, they seem to do the job by filtering out noise but that also slow down music.

Agree with Warrenh and Ajahu. Go with a power conditioner -- it can also save your equipment from frying in certain circumstances. Plus, it helps clean the grunge out of the power more than a power cord can do.
