My amps are plugged in to a conditioner. There is one for each amp.

On my new system, I was strongly encouraged by Audio Research and others to plug the REF 250 amps directly into the wall, preferably with a Furutech receptacle and aftermarket quality power cords and a separate circuit with copper wider to the breaker, a direct ground. Same for a McIntosh amp for the center-surrounds. I was also advised to plug the other Audio REF equipment (phono 2SE and REF 10) into the wall with no power conditioner. On the AV equipment, such as a DVD player, processor, TV etc, I was advised to plug them into a power conditioner (eg. Furman Ref 15), and for all circuits to be on the same phase. So.... that is my plan.

My amps are plugged into my Shunyata Triton, which is plugged into a dedicated 20 amp circuit. Not much sense in having a power conditioner if you aren't going to use it.

My Power Amp T+A is connected to by-pass sockets, i.e. directly to AC line.

I have all my gear, including amps plugged into conditioners with better than direct to wall results. I have 3 conditioners in all and two 20 amp lines, one is 10 awg and has a Ps Audio Soloist Premier inwall conditioner as the foundation for the new Dectet which is fed from the Soloist by an AC 10, this takes care of the pre/pro>Oppo> 3/ch amp (220w per ch), also on the Soloist directly to it, is an Halo A21 fed by an AC 12.
The other conditioner is the Ps Audio Quintet which is on the 12awg line with a Power Port Premier receptacle, the Quintet is fed by an Pangea AC9se and takes care of the Dlp>cable box> and sub. nothing like good clean power and peace of mind ! |

Years ago when i was a Krell dealer, i acutally got my ass chewed out by their support for having their amp lugged into a Richard Gray 1200. Had nothing to do with the Richard Gray unit, they just insist on plugging righ into the wall. Sorry, but just havent been able to do it. I live in an area where surge protection is needed. I feel the Richard Gray 1200 provides wnough current and protection. No problems in many years.

Just received my new Pass X350.8 ��. My "intention" was to start with the factory power cable and go right into the wall to my 20 amp dedicated. However .... The supplied cable couldn't reach the wall OR my conditioner. So for now, and maybe always - I'm running a Panega Ac9 SE power cable (it was on hand and long enough to make it to the conditioner) into my Torus RM 20. So I guess even the best laid plans can be stifled by reality. Gonna sound great anyways !!

Each amplifier has its own dedicated 20A circuit into whose duplex directly plugs the amp and a Shunyata Typhon power conditioner.
