Reading through all this suggests to me that we all have different power cleaning needs depending on what comes into the house and our HiFi equipment choices.
In my case with dedicated 20 amp line, all top end C-J tube equipment and dCS front end, an AQ N5000 made no difference vs. a 20 yr old Shunyata Hydra 8. Then I tried a new Shunyata Denali 2 with good result. Still using the great AQ Hurricane cables. The C-J class A amp still goes directly to the wall however. One nice change was to to isolate all the digital power supplies, Roon Core etc. into a separate Transparent power strip, still pluged into the 20 amp outlet. Now all is quiet and dynamic..
