     As well as providing (Often) sequential turn on or your components, a power condition, a power conditioner tries to make up for amplifier and preamp designs that do not have a well designed power supply, IMHO.
     They also give the retailer something else to sell you.
I prefer my 10 gauge, 30 amp wiring and electronics stuffed with big transformers and lots of big filter caps.
     I tried Classe, but I believe their gobs of small caps do not focus as well as the big ones in other brands. 
     Of course, other associated parts could be the difference.
     I am comparing Classe to things in the same price range and below.
