Hydra 8 after Equitech 2q

I used to run a Furman IT 1220, (balanced power similar to EqiTech) then a Hydra 2, then power amps,but never tried putting the Hydra in front of the Furman.

In my mind it seemed more correct to balance the power and then filter it.
Also,the Furman has a huge transformer so I felt that I would be limiting it somehow by running it into the Hydra first and not the wall.
Some folks think that power amps with large transformers are robbed when they aren't wall plugged so plugging the Furman into the wall seemed to make sense to me.

I did have a friend ask me why I didn't do it the other way around, but I've since changed systems and power my amps direct from the panel using 20 amp breaker and two runs of solid Romex # 10, with no isolation transformer or power conditioner,but using high quality receptacles from the same manufaturere and using the same material construction.

Until I powered up this way,using the Furman and Hydra on a non dedicated standard line was better than into the wall without either.

I was running both my amps on one of the dedicated lines and my front end gear on the other.
I was running the amp line into a Furutech GTX D R-then to a Hydra 8 with an Annaconda 20 amp power cord then 2 Annaconda power cords out of the Hydra and into the amps.

I went to direct line from the panel to the amps with only a Furutech F! 48 at the end of the lines going into a Furutech Rodium !EC at the amps end.

Much simpler and in my system, cleaner sound.

I put the Furman in my HT separate system,also on a dedicated 20 amp line.

All is good.
