Postive or Negative Results -Big Amp & Conditioner

I would like to take a poll on personal results with a big power amp. like a (Threshold SA/4e or Pass 350.5)plugged into a line conditoner/surge protection. If the results were good or bad. Meaning sound diminish. Or is it worth the loss of sound for protection of your power amp.

I have not yet tried a good line conditioner/surge protector on my power amps. Currently plugging directly into the wall.

So my vote is yet undecided.

Good -X ?
Bad -X ?

Be sure to give an explanation and or recommendation. No puny power amp apply. Just looking amps that have tremendous current that make your lights dim when turned on.
Thanks.

Hi Joe
I have until recently run a Krell FPB 200 through an Audiophile APS 1050 mains regenerator with excellent results. Way better than just plugged direct to the mains, no compresion of sound no softening or bluring of either the bass or high frequencies. In conclusion no exagiration of any aspect of the sound. Just all round better results, worth the cost. No problems during powering the Krell up when the massive Tx and caps charge and energise up.
Hope that helps,
Andy
