You might be able to get a power re-generator on the used market that would settler your source problems, the absolute best way. Otherwise there are various filtration methods others are suggesting.
Need Advice on Power Protection/Clean Power
Hello All,
Not sure if I am posting in the correct section but here goes.
I need advice/suggestions on adding on equipment to give my rig protection from power issues.
I have 2 goals (as most do):
- Protect audio/video equipment from power issues
- Improve the performance of my equipment, mainly audio, if at all possible
Currently I have 10+ pieces of equipment connected to a couple of Monster Power Strips.
The equipment that I wanted to mainly protect and improve performance upon is:
- Integrated Amp
- Audio/Video Receiver
- DAC
- Phono Pre-Amp
- TT
- TV
- Universal Blu-Ray Player (used strictly as a CD Transport, eventually will be replaced by a better transport)
- HTPC
- Subwoofer
Additional Equipment that I would like to protect but could potentially keep plugged into existing monster power strip:
- DVR
- Blu-ray player (separate from the above mentioned one), this one is used to watch movies
Equipment that I could keep plugged into existing:
- Chrome Cast Stick
- Remote Hub Base Unit
- Firestick
- Wireless Speaker Module
My research so far has led me to all kinds of brands and solutions.
My budget is probably around $1500 max (not including power cords or other inter-connects).
Here are some options that I have thought about:
- PS Audio Detect Power Conditioner and Power Port Classic AC Upgrade Receptacle
- AudioQuest AC Receptacles (or PS Audio) and Niagara 1200
- AC Receptacle (PS Audio or Audioquest) and Decware ZLC
Two units that I am curious about and seem like it could work in conjunction with the above mentioned equipment:
- ADD-Powr units (one of their more entry level offerings)
- Shunyata Venom Defender
My system is very entry level and I am wondering if any of these products are even worth it?
I would definitely like to provide better protection but If I can actually improve the sound, then I would very much be interested in that.
I am just wondering if my system would really reveal any improvements.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
