The Shunyata Hydra crapped out sonically.

Thanks for explaining what you meant by "crapped out". Usually, this term refers to mechanical or electrical failure.

Please report back with which conditioner satisfies you, and best of luck with your search.

Are "Big Amps" bigger than "big amps" but smaller than "BIG AMPS"? ;-)

Regards,

Big amps meaning tons of amp pull & current. The type of solid state power amp when turned on it makes your lights dim in the room.

I have another question that is probably a bit off topic. I own Acoustic Reality Figaro ICEpower based amps (with the ASP1000 modules). These amps could deliver 500 Watts into 8 Ohms and 1000 Watts into 4 Ohms. Because they have high efficiency circuit and a switching power supply, they only need 20 Watts when idle. If you want to use isolation transformer in conjunction with these amps, is it still necessary to use a big one, let's say 2000VA so there would be no dynamic limitations? Thank you.

Running Springs Audio works for me. Although I'm not sure if my Big Solid State Amp is as big as your Big Solid State Amp.
