Power Conditioner for your amplifier?


Lately, I've been toying with the idea of trying a power conditioner on my amplifier (ARC VT-100 MkII). I know there has been much written about going straight into the wall with your amp (which is what I am doing currently), but has anyone had any luck with plugging your amplifier into a conditioner? Specifically, I've been thinking of a non-limiting device, such as a PS Audio Ultimate Outlet or a UPC-200.
Has anyone had success using a power conditioner on your amplifier - yes / no? Any thoughts and suggestions will be greatly appreciated. In advance, thanks, and happy listening!

My only experience is the present one : with the high quality swiss power conditioner probably nobody knows here in the USA, named "BoƮte Noire Reference" (6'000$) I enjoy more the music with my Accuphase amplifier P-7000 plugged into it than into the wall.
There is possibly a slight loss of power (but with a powerful amplifier, it doesn't matter) but a richer, more articulated and less harsh sound. Better, no doubt about that.
