Just got AQ Niagara 1200 ...


and WOW ... what an incredible difference this has made in sound quality! ... I am becoming a convert of power conditioning :)

Now I wonder if the following "upgrades" would make any further improvements:

- Power cord. Currently AQ NRG-Z3 to say AQ Thunder
- Power regenerator like PS Audio Powerplant as a Niagara replacement?

Appreciate advise.

@fuzzypoodle,
Yes, moving up the AQ line offers amazing benefits.
I own the Thunder and can attest to its' positive abilities. If I had the funds, I would get the Hurricane. But, for the money, the Thunders will smoke just about anything out there.
As far as power regenerators/conditioners go, PS and AQ use different ways to supply power.
Here is a link I found a few days ago:

Both seem to perform admirably, though the AQ seems to give the PS a run for the money- especially as it is almost half the price. Also note how power cords affect the performance.

Been really pleased with Acoustic Revive. They were one of my best purchases, unbelievable really. 
Can't recommend a PSA regenerator in place of the Niagara. Others might disagree. Sold mine because although it had some cleanup ability I thought it sounded too "artificial" and went back to my Blue Circle conditioner.
The answer is a big YES if I were you. I've been putting gear together for years and learning as I go. I've got gear now that I love (I gone basically the tubed route) but I've also learned lately that things like power cords and interconnects can make a huge difference. And it is more expensive. But audition power cords, for instance, and take your time and compare. Half my gear I've changed over to aftermarket cables (after auditioning) and the music is quieter, blacker background, etc. Try it. Don't listen to people who say it's a waste of money. There is a difference. Just take your time and judge for yourself. I did and I'm much happier with the results.
