I had always put my amp plugged directly into its own outlet, the difference was subtle, but audible... About 8 months ago, I had a lighten strike and lost my beloved Old Crazily modified Sumo Nine. Everything on the Conditioner is still alive.... Today, I have my old Sumo at Ed Martins house of the old Marcof Electronics, he is modifying the circuit to run off different output transistors. Should be interesting, but either way, the point is, something to be said for filtering.
Can too many components on one outlet affect the sound of an amp?
I am running a few amps, a receiver, tv and a few more components on the same outlet. I am using a power conditioner. My main issue is - I recently noticed that when I'm only running my McIntosh MC275, a pre-amp and a cd player, I seem to be getting better bass compared to having more components on. Is it just my imagination? Or is it possible? Everything is running on a 15 amp circuit.
