definitly try plugging into the wall.
My Amp, Dac and Preamp all sound 1,000 times better just plugged into the Wall.
I do not mean a little better either.
Ask Pass Labs, Vitus, Simaudio or Krell? They will all tell you to plug into the wall!
Sure buy an awesome power cable and upgrade your outlet as well and if you can defiantly go for the discated 20 amp circuit and the above as well.
I can highly recommend the Oxiyde R1. It’s 95% the performance of the super expensive Furutech outlets at 1/5 the price. It’s a little smoother also which is nice. The Furutech can be a little harsh.
I have tried many conditioners and will keep trying more and more until I find one I like.
Once I settle on one I use it for a few weeks or month or two and then for heck of it I try the wall and then I’m like WTF and the conditioner goes on Audiogon.
Unless your home is a city apartment with horrible power and even then I bet it will be better then most conditioners.
Last night I just bought the Audioquest Niagra 1000 and matching Audioquest Tornado HC AC Power Cable.
AQ claims that their new cable line is designed to work with their Niagra line of conditioners so we will see.
Here is what I settled on buying the last couple weeks to fill out my new analog front end.
Rega P8 Turntable
Rega Apheta 2 Cart
Sutherland Duo Phonostage
(2) Audience Au24se AC Cables
- (phonostage takes 2 AC Cable)
Audioquest Fire 1M Interconnect
- (RCA for phonostage to preamp)
Audioquest Niagara 1000 AC unit
Audioquest Tornado AC Cable
Hope my anologue front end can compete with my digital.
