What do you NOT plug into the power conditioner...


...hearing that there are and are not certain components that should be plugged into a conditioner...

Why would you not plug everything into a power conditioner assuming that the conditioner covers the watts required for all the devices?

I go straight out of the wall on everything ........ No Power Conditioner....... The passive units I tried sounded vailed so I took it out and sold it .........I never tried active ......

Everything except battery power supplied cd player and all the computer server thingy's.
I have three power conditioners.
The analog, and video gets plugged into the Furman REF20i including the Bryston 4B-SST2 amp. (I like the balanced 'technical' power delivery of the Furman, and with the amp also.)
The digital gets the Monster 7000SS power conditioner (also in balanced power delivery mode). My PS is not in use as of right now.
When I used a cheap conditioner, the amp was from the wall. Then I got a cheap conditioner JUST for the amp. then I bought the $3,500. Furman. (used, used for $1,400. good deal.)
I wish I could handle not plugging things into protection, but how do you stomach having such expensive equipment without surge protection? I have a whole house surge protector but don't believe it will be sufficient for delicate electronics, especially expensive ones. I see a wide range of voltage including dips and spikes, not to even mention the lightning storms. Do you worry about it or just assume its going to be fine?
