Best kept secret in AC line filtering conditioning


How many of you guys truly know of Puritan Audio Labs ? Not many yet ,these are made in the U.K 
I have 3 friends in Europe that own them , and found a guy at our audio club just  an hour away 
I will check out next week , and against the much more costly AQ niagra  this removes hum,noise 
like nobodies business .model 136, and  better still model 156 all under $2k check out the video.

@thyce, if your 15 amp breakers are tripping then change them for ones with a different trip-curve. The breakers are thermomagnetic devices. The magnetic side will cause instantaneous trip like in a lightening strike, the thermo side will heat up and cause a bimetal strip to open-circuit the breaker. The trip-curve determines the time and amount of overcurrent allowed before tripping.

I don't know about regs in USA but maybe upgrading to 20/25A breakers with a slower trip will not only provide uninterrupted service but better dynamics too. Go as high as the house wiring or wiring regs will allow.
@cleeds, you not only have things backwards but upside down, back to front and inside out :)

You also state: " And of course the power cord will need to be changed to have the proper connector for the 240VAC service."

The IEC receptacle is an industry standard that is used for connection to the mains regardless of countries' voltage. Think about a device that has the ability to be used on either 110V or 230V by internally connecting the transformer primaries in series (230V) or parallel (110V)  do you find two different IEC connectors on the back panel???
cleeds, fair enough. So it’s not the power cord that needs to be changed but just the connector that plugs into the wall? I have lived in countries that use one voltage only. South Africa, UK and now Ireland which are all +/_ 230V

The potatoes are not the same, British and Irish spuds taste terrible!
