Power conditioning

I'm looking for a power conditioner for my McCormack DNA125; I'd also use it for my McCormack pre and my NAD CD player. There seems to be a lot of choices out there; my local dealer sells the Panamax, but so far I'm leaning towards the Hydra or Quintet. And advice would be welcome particularily from Steve. Thanks.

Has anyone had experience with Balanced Power?

Hello Swall3,

I'm running TORUS RM20 BALANCED (240VOLTS IN, & 120 OUT). This way I'm told that both legs of my breaker box would be brought into the PC (Power Conditioner). I am not an electrician but I must inform you that I don't hear the slightest of sound anymore when system idling, even when my hear is right on top of tweeter. Mind you I'm also running new BRYSTON 14BSST2 series amplifier. Have been a BRYSTON customer for 16 years. You can find more info at BRYSTON website.

Hope this helps a bit,
Mitch

"Has anyone had experience with Balanced Power?"

Yes, I've been using balanced power for the past 5 years. I went the DIY way and already have a 4th generation rebuild in the works. I've experienced a lowered system noise floor, and improvements in detail, transparency and bass performance. Following are links to more information.
