Amplifier is now off the Power Conditioner


Yesterday, I replaced the wall outlet that my audio system uses to eliminate the switch on the bottom plug. Until now my tube amplifier had been plugged into the amplifier plug on my power conditioner, but now it is connected to the second plug via a basic surge protector.

I have b read that power conditioners are restrictive for amplifiers, but my first impression tonight was "wow". I doubt the wall outlet made the difference and it is possible that it was a good audio night (sometimes things just sound better for no known reason) so I will have to remain open minded for now.

It seemed that things are more clear, almost edgy, and the bass tightened up.

You need a Shunyata Triton. Every one of my amps sounds better connected to the Triton versus the wall outlet.
The Triton is built different than all others. There are no capacitors, no transformers, no MOV's which interact with an amp. Look it up on Shunyata's web site or better than that, try one yourself. I can only recall one piece ever offered on the Gon, so new may be the only option.
