What's new with power conditioning?

I just moved to a new place and I need some help. My old house had PS Audio ports and I had an electrician run some lines for me and my sound was CLEAN. However, my new place isn't so clean. I can hear the dryer coming through my speakers when I wash. Lucky for me, I only wash once a week.

I took the PS Audio power ports from my old place but for now I just don't have the cash it might take to have a qualified electrician come over and set up my lines.

I looked up PS Audio and wow, they have a bunch of new stuff.

What is out there that will clean my power. I use a tube preamp and SET amp and this probably pulls the most power. The rest of my system is a CD player, turntable and that's it. I might be adding a SACD player.

Any suggestions?

John I am sorry you seem to be the sensitive type so let me explain. Every once in a while something strikes me as funny, such as a joke and I thought using the word "shoking" in a power thread was funny. Maybe you were confused when I didnt frame it in the classic "knock knock" but still it was a joke.
Many here know I spend lots of time being any help I can, many here also know I like jokes, and it seems odd to me that you would call me "confrontational" yet it is you who is taking time to directly confront me....Hypocritical?
For anyone who wants to know, I am here till Thursday, please try the fish.

Sound Applications X-12E, hope I have that right, is on A'gon every so often for about $1200-1500. Check out their website, Soundapplications.com, I believe and see what you think. I do not sell their product but I do use it.

The Sound Application products are all conditioners, not regenerators ;--)

Ok, so conditioner vs regenerator? What are the pros and cons? Are the regenerators the way to go? It would seem they would get the cleanest power. It also seems likely that the conditioners are probably the cheeap alternative.

Oh, I get it now. You are sorry I'm a sensitive hypocrite. Apology accepted.
