Clean Power without the drawbacks of Conditioning Filtering. Advice?

Hi-

From reading i see there is a lot of talk on the drawbacks of Conditioning filtering. Dynamics and freq. limitations etc.

I want to ask if there is a power strip+cord that are not filtering. I think i could possibly get away without conditioning.
From searching it looks like there are the cheapo strips that you don't want to use OR Conditioning strips.

Wondering if there is a good reliable strip that does not screw around with the sound and can also deliver to an 800w consumption tube amp.

Thanks!

Wow, that brought back memories. My friend's dad, back when I was in  high school, was an architect and they had this computer that used punch cards and they had to be stacked in the right order or it wouldn't work. Needless to say, I thought I was doing it right and froze the computer. My friend's dad couldn't use it for the rest of the weekend and had to wait until Monday for the tech guy to sort it out.

It made me computer phobic as well. 🤪

All the best,

I would look at High Fidelity Cable conditioners and power distributors line of products.  No filtering or current reduction, 30 day money back trial. I use their MC 6 Hemisphere , it replaced my PSaudio P10 . good luck

By far the best solution is the Magnan Audio DIY plug in capacitor bank solution. 
Geoffy, really now. Hel-loo! Rpt Hel-loo!! Capacitor banks are not going to filter diddly on an AC branch circuit.

They are required by electrical supply utilities for power factor correction in industrial applications where large motors cause a lag in power factor due to the inductive load. The capacitors in a capacitor bank are sequentially switched in to the circuit to counter-act this by introducing a load with a leading power factor.

The above industrial scenario does not apply to residential electrical delivery systems, as there are no significant loads with apparent power phase angle lagging real power.  

Wake up Geoffy and smell then ☕️. There’s no room for your science fiction unless you want to waste money and make things worse. Do yourself a favor and take a night school course in AC Electicity at your local community college. Be informed, not ignorant and jump on the knowledge 🚂 train 🚂! Toot! toot!
