hey guys, any recommendation of good and budget power Conditioner? How was Belkin PureAVĀ® Home Theater Power Console PF30?


And I'm having 'hiss' noise coming from plasma TV set, around Power Socket part, by using this power conditioner, does it solve the problem?

I got this Bada LB3300
at KLAV with offered price.
The boss there told me that those brands like belkin, monster etc are crap, all use small components.
His power conditioner uses good quality components.
I don't know true or not. I don't really believe him.
But the build is very solid, better than those plastic or pvc housing.
Hence I bought it.

Reix, any difference? I was told that the PSaudio centre makes alot of difference to the sound and the PQ because it check and filter interference. Is that true?

Basic rule is u want to use filter on ur source (cdp, dvdp, bdp, etc) but for amp u do not want to filter/restrict the incoming power. Just connect direct to wall. Anyway, if you choose to use an external surge protection or power filtering device, make sure that it is sufficiently rated for the power requirements of your amp.

Well, I have not actually compare it.
I never use it with my old set up, only recently use it with my new speakers.
Maybe this weekend I will try to compare.

what i meant was u must use it with ur source to filter out the noise but not recommended to use with amp. some power block like qed has a unfiltered socket for amp or high wattage equipment and the rest are filtered for ur source.

AFAIK, UPS is not a power conditioner rite? it's power backup


Added on August 13, 2009, 9:38 amwhat about the 'hissing' noise from plasma set? is it related to power line noise?

seriously, check it out at the audiophile section (might have recommendation.. sorry, i am lazy to check}

get the right tools for the right job if can

Filters are meant for sources.... namely, CD DVD BD Astro,
if you connect Power Amps (or maybe AVR) here think you will get a thinner sound

Stablelizers or Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) think oso not recommended for hi power equipments like AVR ( when AVR want to boom the voltage will pull it back ~stablelize ma~
you still get effect but maybe not that good

That is what i was told, you still have to check it out biggrin.gif

UPS is for power back up, my whole system is on UPS, smile.gif next time will separate the AVR from it biggrin.gif
but if you can get an "ON-Line" UPS means better still, you will get a very clean constant output say 220 or 225 all the way ( not fluctuating voltage from 215 to maybe as high as 245~ industrial area.

Housing area daytime high voltage night time low voltage
Industrial area is the reverse tongue.gif

Try out something called AudioMagic. Available from the guys @ Audio Creations. Most proper conditioners will have a voltage regulator and a filter so you won't need to worry about voltage block. I would recommend using one for the power amp especially since it will be decoding and converting the the signals from your source units to your analog outputs.

Its got 6 outputs if I am not mistaken all using US plugs. Price is around 4K but I think you can get it for lesser now. I have attached a link below.

That's true but 4k simply too expensive la for me. I use the normal 6-plug Tacima CS929 for all my sources and also the LCD. My amp n sub each connected to a single plug Belkin and direct to wall.
