Power conditioner/strip


I currently am using a Shunyata Research MPC-12 Power Conditioner (with SSF38 ...  Think of a upgrade.  

I was thinking Furutech e-TP80S NCF AC Power Filter Distributor.  Any thoughts on this?  or any recommendations of something better than the Shunyata.  Need at least 6 plugs (and a unit that can handle these "big" plug ends)  

Would like to keep it under 2500. 

Out of the wall i have a dedicated 20 amp line and use Furutech top of the line wall plug.

Thanks

you might want to try a PS Audio Power Regenerator. They see to get good reviews.

How about buying an actual power conditioner that meets actual, stringent standards and specifications?  I dont know what your power requirements are so ill just use a somewhat worst-case scenario and suggest an Ametek Powervar ABC1200-11 or heck, make it the ABC1200-11MED for even higher spec and reliability.   These things are big and heavy.  I have the ABC830-11, and it's also bear to lug around on account of the giant windings inside, paired with physically large film filter capacitors.  I dont have a picture of the guts handy at the moment, but these things mean business, and the company sells to industry that has to meet requirements, so they dont try to pull the wool over your eyes with whiz-bang features that dont accomplish anything. 

A power conditioner will do nothing but potentially inject nose into your system. You cannot 'clean' power. It's a fallacy.

@mlapenta you haven’t stated what you are hoping to improve about your existing power conditioner.

With limited info on the problem we’re solving here, I would suggest either a used Puritan or a used Shunyata product up the line from the one you are currently using.

I was thinking of power purchasing a power conditioner until a Stereophile reviewer wrote about one catching fire.

  I heard a few demoed back when physical stores existed.  The store sales guy would enthuse about the improvements after the demo and I couldn’t hear any difference.

  I guess I just forfeited any Golden Ears pretensions here
