PS Audio Ultimate outlet


Have thought about one to protect amp from surges but do not want to affect the sound. Anybody have one?

Thanks Estmad, my amp definately dims the lights at power up so this will be a problem. I knew it sounded too good to be true.
Well, if you get tired enough maybe you will have time to listen to some cables and power cords instead of reading about them.
Bmpnyc, good to hear from you, we seem to have the same interest in a lot of gear! I am going to go ahead and order one of these and take my chances since there is a 30 day money back policy. Unfortunately I think they are back ordered untill mid March. Have a good weekend
If all you say is true on the other threads regarding cable, then we should all just love this outlet since we have been told we will by the salesman. But we don't Please explain why again? Are you saying our minds will fool us one way with interconnects, than another way with power cords, all of which are false perceptions? You may have discovered a another science all together.
Stevemj, if it where psychological wouldn't most of these posts tend to prefer the "Ultimate Outlet"? After all these folks ordered one after reading the hoopla on the website about the improvements to expect, it costs a lot of more than the outlet in your wall so it would have to be better right? You really should try some of this stuff before shooting it down based on the numbers. Thanks.
Steve, you didn't answer my qestion. Why would we hear a negetive affect when using this outlet if it costs more and we have been told that it will IMPROVE the sound of our amps? How can you say it doesn't make a difference if you have not tried it! I can say all day long that BMW 750i drives like my Maxima....but I have never even sat in 750 much less drove one so who is going to believe me
Steve, most of the posts state that this outlet has an adverse affect when used with amps. Is it not possible that this is true? I have an idea, put down your books and listen. Why would you fork out the cash for a dual trace scope ( nice thing to have around, but for what? ) and not be willing to spend a little jack on some USED cable or power cords. You can turn around and sell them if they make no difference to you. Why not??? You don't see reviews of equipment being written soley based on measurements.
Steve, the point is to not degrade the performance any more than you have to. You can put unleaded premium in your car and get a little more zip, or you can put the low test in and not. Doesn't mean that it makes sense to rebuild the engine unless it needs it.
Hey Doug, what where the problems they deleted? If you would e-mail me the response if A'gon won't let you post it. PS-300 is likely in my future, but I really want to protect the amp. If PS is fixing this I would like to try it as it is not that expensive. Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.
FYI, on the ps-audio chat-room in Audio-asylum Paul says they are coming out with a 20 amp version which they recommend for 200 watt+ amps. Should be better for the dynamics.
