Ok. I'm back.

IsoTek Evo3 Super Titan has been tested. At first I understood that something was wrong. And that was the current from the wall.

I sat down, working with my lap top, listening to music just to get it all warm. Just a little unfocused, I heard that something had changed. It felt like my set up have had some growth hormones. It was the same sound characteristics, but at least one size bigger/better in every part of the music you could imagine. Control, depths, airy clear softnes in the treble, smotheness all over, powerfull dynamic that exceeds the one before and that is amazing due to that power conditioners I'v heard before reduces dynamics and makes the music less real. Now it was the other way around.

This is really a well working good toy fore those with great set ups.

I have never had this great sound in my home.

Maybe I have to by one.

The part that holds the electronic is hanged between two damped corian plates.
I think Clearaudio have been taken part in this construction.

Your observations mirror mine. I upgraded to the Super Titan from the older basic Titan. The old Titan did some good things but also had some negatives to my ears - I can't think of any negatives at all for the Super Titan. I run one outlet to my power amp and another feeds a Running Springs Audio conditioner, which supplies source and preamp components. It all works beautifully.

Nice to hear. Right now Nordost Thor comes after Super Titan and feeds MSB and Pre amp Krell evo 202. Similar as you drive it. I'v also got two Nordost Qv2 and two Evo3 Isoplug.

The connection into Super Titan is massive.

I'v tried to combine Super Titan with Nordost Thor and come to the conclusion that it's getting better if CD and Pre-amp goes from Thor connected to Super Titan. The Power amp goes directly from Super Titan.



There was actually a significant better sound this way, compared to have everything connected to Super Titan without Nordost Thor. It's hard to understand but even after Super Titan there are still things that can be enhanced.

Would you mind if I ask how exactly do you use IsoPlugs and Qv2s?
I mean where did you place them? Do you still use them together with Super Titan?

This is the current state of my system:
(Triple) wall socket -> Isotek Aquarius -> PS Audio P3 -> audio components (stream player/preamp, active speakers, active subwoofer).

I discovered that the best way is to connect P3 after Aquarius. In this case I achieved the lowest noise floor, thus the highest level of dynamics.

But I still feel that the quality of the electric mains in my room can be improved. As I have two vacant wall sockets in my room, I am planning to try IsoPlug or/and Qv2. But am not sure they will help me to improve the soundquality. So I would be glad to hear about your experience with these devices.

I usually see that people use IsoPlug/Qv2 by plugging them into power disributors. So these devices turn distributors into simple power conditioners. But what about using them with an existing power conditioner? Will they do their job as well in this situation?
