I run all my front-end gear through the Hydra 8, plus the subwoofer sections of my loudspeakers. The Hydra 8 has its own dedicated 20A circuit. My power amp plugs directly into the wall, no conditioner. It also has its own dedicated 20A circuit.

I'm looking to purchase a used Hydra power conditioner. As I understand there have been 3 versions produced so far, the latest being the new Hydra 8. Would appreciate if someone could enlighten me on the difference between first and second series of Hydra's and how I would be able to physically differentiate them (where possible). Thanks
