Postive or Negative Results -Big Amp & Conditioner

Bingo Jmcgrogan2. Thank you for clarifying.

"asking is not if the power conditioner will improve the sound, but if the power conditioner will protect the amp w/o harming the sound".

BPT's balanced isolation transformers/conditioners work great. Have one on my Belles Reference 350 and it helps, not limits the sound in any way.

It's very simple. It depends on the amp. You have to try it to determine if it works or not. That's all.

Example:
I had 3 different McCormack amps where the Shunyata Hydra was an improvement.
Now wih my Pass Labs X250.5, Hydra slows the amp down and limits dynamics. It still does work good for source and preamp. But not for the Pass amp. I prefer it directly into the wall. Although I live in NYC and the power is crap, the X250.5 amplifier deals with dirty power without any issues. I can not determine any noise floor that is apparent. If it's there, it is no higher than it is with the amp plugged into hydra.

As far as protection, there is a magnetic breaker/switch on the back of the Pass amp that functions like a fuse. Bottom line is, you need to try a conditioner in your system. Until then, it's a guessing game.

Hi Joe,
The Running Springs Duke will protect your amps via propritary RSV's and resettable breakers. They also voltage stabilize via a large propritary capacitor bank without current limitting or adding coloration. 20amp/2400w inbound current = 20amps/2400w available outbound current.

Hi Joe,
Like Dedicated Audio I also sell Running Springs.
Cheers.
