Anybody use Running Springs Audio Conditioners?


Do any of you GON members use in your home rig the power conditioner(s) that is manufactured by Running Springs Audio?

There has been a few excellent reviews on these power conditioners, but I take reviews with a large, "grain of salt" and trust much more what fellow audiophiles experience/hear when finding about new pieces of gear.

If, any of you have their product in your system, I would greatly appreciate if you would share your opinion regarding their performance and what gear is in your system so I can gain if their is more synergy with tubes vs. solid state.

I'm thinking of setting up a home audition, the only way to really know if you like something in your system, but thought if anybody has tried the Running Springs Audio gear they could give me a heads-up before I make final arrangements. Thanks to anybody who can provide information and is willing to share.

Teajay, I am curious about the Running Springs Audio conditioners as well. Do you know if it's balanced power? I am trying out in my system right now a Blue Circle MR800 balanced power conditioner. I need the unit only for the source. So far I found it to expand the soundstage a little both width and depth and it provides a little more air around instruments, little more detail in the bass. My resident line conditioners are two Shunyata Hydra2 units. I live in the apt building and the power is crap here. Besides, I found my cd player to be very sensitive to power quality and flactuations. Even more so than my pre-amp and amp. I tried plugging in my ARC LS-15 tube pre into the MR800 and I like it better plugged into the Hydra2, although it didn't sound bad in the MR800, just sounds fuller with the Hydra2. May be because the pre-amp's power supply regulates power better than the CD player...don't know, but that's the case. If you try out one of the Running Springs, I would appreciate if you share your thoughts. thanks...
