Anyone heard of Powervar conditioners?

I bought one from him and like it very much. He is very trustworthy and the unit was practically new.

I have never been tempted to try anything fancier or more expensive since this unit performs all it promised to do. Totally silent operation and no overheating, by the way.

I do have dedicated outlets with isolated grounds to the stereo room and feel, like others on this site, that it is the first step in addressing your (clean?) power requirements.

With best regards.

Blueswan, how did you test for the audio compression? Or was it just by A-B listening comparisons?

I've tried a bit of listening comparisons (with and without Powervar,) although I only have my transport, DAC, Pre, and phono-pre on it, and didn't notice significant changes in the sound. My amps and subwoofers plug into the wall.

Your input would be appreciated, thanks.

Blueswan, thanks for the tip. I'll do some critical listening this weekend. You are not the only one that has had this criticism.
Much appreciated.
