Noise Destoyer Power Conditioner


Has anyone tried this unit from the Cable Company ?

I have , I plugged it into my Shunyata Hydra 8 on a dedicated circuit.

It takes about an 1/2 hour (and continues to improve) to see the effects on Video but the colors are deeper and the picture quality is much improved. High def is really great!

On Audio, I have my APL and Pass Labs Amp on other dedicated circuits , but even so, the Audio definition improved quite a bit.I couldnt believe it.

I dont know what it is doing but it only cost $179.

I am going to order another one to be used with just my Audio.

Ozzy, please let us know what you think of the PE from Alan Maher. In my system, it made a noticable improvement in both video and audio. Allow about a week of break in, however, I heard a noticeable improvement after just a couple of days. Also, I recently e-mailed Alan to buy another one and his wife jen informed me that Alan was on tour( he's a sound engineer) and won't be back until mid-August. I don't know when you ordered your PE, but if it was fairly recently, Alan hand builds the PE to order so you might have a little longer wait than usual. Jen told me that I could still place my order as Alan builds them in the order received. I decided to hold off until Alan returns on ordering a 2nd unit to get an idea of his schedule. I'm in no hurry as the one unit is providing me a much improved listening experience and with more time I'll be better able to evaluate where the 2nd unit will benefit the most in my system.
Leica man,
I have to say that the PE conditioner from Alan Maher( I haven't heard the Noise Destroyer) can also add a bit of warmth to my system. Maybe that's why Alan himself recommends placing the initial PE into an outlet that has the brightest sound. I found the PE a tad too warm connected to a Vans Evers strip I had my T.V. plugged into, which was plugged into the same outlets as my monoblocks. I moved the PE to another outlet about 10 ft. away from my system and I get a much more neutral presentation. It's very interesting how this unit can alter the sound when experimenting with it in different outlets in the room. This is just with one PE. I am contemplating buying another one to see how two work out in the same room. Another interesting thing is that I also had an Electroclear unit in another outlet and once it was removed, the PE unit by itself provided a much better sound. Somehow, the Electroclear's parts are clashing with the PE. What a fascinating hobby this is. Tweaking can be such a kick, sometimes. YMMV
Alan, is this a typo that a 2nd unit will roll off the top end? Did you mean "without" rolling off the top end, I hope?
Ozzy,
I'll take one of your PE units off your hands for a "brother-in-law" deal.
