Which power conditioner for large amp and digital?

I'm hoping to aquire one power conditioner for my system(due to space). Arcam Alpha 9 cd, Anthem AVM20, Sunfire Sig. 425w x 5. Have 2 dedicated runs now, but would like a conditioner that could handle and seperate all. Have researched Audio Magic Stealth, Hydra, and Balanced Power. Not sure which is best to handle all components, as the Sunfire seems to like its own 20amp, non current limiting draw. Would also like to keep the Anthem seperate from the Arcam, as it runs primarily in analog bypass. Any suggestions?

I plug all my components into my Audio Magic Eclipse. The isolation, in the Eclipse, is perfect as far as digital and analog goes. Two separate power cords required; and then going into two dedicated lines = electric nirvana. Of course, some good power cords are needed to complete the equation. Before the Eclipse I used the Audio Magic Digital Mini and the Matrix for my analog. peace, warren

Pardales,
Audio Magic vs Chang? You're actually considering buying the Chang overf the AM? You just might find a Stealth Mini Digital, used, if you're patient. I believe a new one would cost you in the neighborhood of $650. Worth the $$--big time! Save and wait a little longer, and buy a brand spanking new one, and you'll thank me later. Your patience will be generously rewarded. peace, warren

I don't know what the Anthem is, however, if it is digital, keeping in separate from analog, is best. With the digital mini, this is not a problem if they are both digital. The Stealth has separate circuitry for both. If you're interested, Westcoaster, send me an email on the side and I can turn you on to the guy I purcased all my Audio Magic from. He's honest, audio savvy, patient and great prices to boot. peace, warren
