Hi,
In all honesty, I'm not going to invest in power conditioning or dedicated lines. I have my components on a Salamander rack, as I've always had, for the cd transport and a Mapleshade block for the amp. I truly appreciate the way-more-diverse-than-I'm-used-to advice on power conditioning and room treatments and such, but if I'm going to replace a part, it's going to be a component. I mean, I know enough about standing waves, diffraction, and such to use walls, corners, spacing, potted plants, etc. to enhance the sound.
So, it looks as if the amp is what most are saying to replace with one with a higher wattage. Okay. Sounds good. I'm somewhat surprised that the Rotel wasn't the first to go. Does a better CD player make that much of a difference?
Thank you as always,
s
