Best Line conditioner under $1000 used

I am moving into a smaller house. My exsisting house has a dedicated circuit for my system. I will need to use a power conditioner for a while at the new house. I say that without knowing. I assume I need a power conditioner at the new house. It is 100 years old. I guess I am asking what my choices are. Will I benefit from a line regulator/ power conditioner or something. I have been looking at the Monster AVS2000 sig series. Looks like a real nice product.
I have done some reading and find that these items tend to add a signature to the sound. Not to sure I am happy about that. Any input?
Thanks, Scott

You might try a new Welborne Gatekeeper. They are better than the Chang IMHO, and really a good value.

Panamax has the best filtration and is truly a surge protector with isolated power for analog and digital.

Powervar, used on ebay for couple G's at the most, depending on amp draw.

I achieved dedicated lines, power conditioning and the answer to my electrical distibution nightmares, which had persisted for many, many years, through a single product. It requires a 240v outlet in your home, but believe me, this was one exciting purchase -- to realize that it instantly banished a whole host of intractable issues and maximized my sonic experience with all the rest of my gear (which had been mysteriously underperforming forever)! -- I was elated. Unfortunately I sold off alot of good stuff before discovering that I had had the right stuff, just wasn't feeding it properly. If you don't have the outlet it won't help you, plus I'm in a hurry, but if it interests you to any greater extent you can contact me through Audiogon.
