HI, I have a Hydra 8. I have everything plugged into it. My dealer told me that the more components plugged into it, the better it's performance. I have tried taking it out of my system, but I always return to the Hydra. I guess I didn't know how well it worked until I tried listening without it. I definitely prefer my system with the Hydra 8 in place.
No Current Limiting Non System Dependent PLC?
I currently have a Hydra 4 but am looking to raise the bar in performance of my system. I have aDK Signature with Reimer Wind River GS and a Modwright Sony 999ES with all AZ cabling. My research says that practically every line conditioner is system dependent -with some who will praise a conditioner as an enhancement and others who will crticize said conditioner as a sonic detriment- comments like "decreased dynamics", "a closed-in sound," "a veiled sound." Have you found a PLC where the performance isn't system dependent. And does it work well for amplifiers? I recently learned after having the Hydra for a few years that it's good with amplifiers, at least in my current setup.
