Help on power conditioner upgrade

Currently using PS Audio 300 with m/w. Equipment consists of Sony 333ES, Perp Tech P1 & P3, Bel Canto Pre-1, Bel Canto 200.2, and Legacy Sig III speakers. Everything except the amp is plugged into the 300. Looking at the following. All are priced around $1600 for used or demo. Auditioning is not an option.

Shunyata Hydra, Equi=Tech 1.5 or 2.0, Exact Power 2000, PS Audio 1200.

Not displeased with the 300 but I regard it as an entry level piece and I would like to plug in my amp and maybe even a second 200.2 down the road. Thanks.

I have a Q5 Equi=tech with the 230 30A input power and it has no problem with a tube amp. I have compared with the other 15A circuits in the room, and it is better on the Equi=tech than out of the wall... The Burmester 958 is also a nice unit, but costly. Either of the two I would suggest -- have not tried the Hydra.. Had the PS600 and 1200 for demo and sent them back.

Your mileage may vary..
