Default Balanced Power

I posted this in the accessories forum, but since it is a DIY I thought that I’d post it here as well. It’s not as fancy as many of the projects that are shown here, but I am pleased with how it turned out. There’s also no doubt that it has improved the performance of my system.

I've finally finished my custom Balanced Power Conditioner. I'm pleased with the way it turned out.
The parts cost is about $750, using a 1.5 KV balanced power transformer. If you built one without the audiofool parts it would be about $350. The ACME outlets are $45 each, and the Siltech input power cable is $300.
I'm very please with the sonic results. Dynamics have been improved and bass slam is dramatically improved.
