I use a PS Audio P1200 with my Krell KSA-300S with such good results that I haven't gone back to straight wall connection. I also use the P1200 in 220V mode which benifits from balanced A/C. I know it is pricey, but if you are like me in finding the components you want then it is a final step and a big sonic improvement.
Why Can We plug our AMPS directly into wall w/o Worrying?
hi all.
considering power conditioners for my system, and am stuck on why I can plug my krell amps directly into the wall without worrying about line surges, dirty power, rfi and similar evils... why is it so much more important to get 'clean power' to my other components and to 'protect' them, but so many people advise plugging the most expensive part (of my system) directly into the walls? are power amps somehow impervious to dirty lines and spikes? someone help... with my setup, i could just get a ps audio 300 or mit z center or chang iso 9600 for the components and go the amps directly into the wall, or i could get a more expensive device (ps audio 600, chang ht1000) that includes power conditioning for the amps... thanks again all for your reponses... -
