Looking for a Power Conditioner

post #1 of 24

I've searched the forums for other topics on power conditioners and so far I've had my eye on the Furman PL-Plus series II
http://www.furmansound.com/product.p...&id=PL-PLUS_II

Does anyone have other suggestions around the <$200 price range? (my headphone home rig listed in my signature will be plugged into this power conditioner).

i'm going with the ps audio soloist. you would need a power strip if you don't have another nearby outlet for the computer though.

How are these?

Can they compare to the highly-valued UPC-200?

Don't know how many amps you are looking for and if you are also looking for and isolation transformer but ONEAC makes some of the best.

Search ebay for ONEAC. The CB1115 is good for 12amps. Usually you can buy if for $50 and there is $50 shipping - weighs almost 50lbs.

I'm not sure how many amps I need. I only plan to power my Presonus CS DAC and SP Extreme (and I'd like to have leeway for maybe another amp/DAC).

I'm looking for something a little more compact than the Furman PL-plus rackmount, and I found this...

http://www.furmansound.com/product.p...1&id=PST-6_PRO
http://www.furmansound.com/product.php?div=01&id=PF-PRO

What makes the Power Factor Pro so expensive? (and why is the PST-6 so cheap?).

I am also in the hunt for a less expensive power source for my amp/dac. Any Opinions on the soloist or anything are appreciated b/c I am clueless.
I am also thinking of the soloist.

I was going to pick this up, but it requires a space enough to fill 4 'regular' sockets and I do not feel like getting out my saw

looks like the oneac or try to score a PS audio 200 used. Quest for Sound had something less expensive that they recommend but I will have to search my email and report back on that.

The brickwall's are listed as "surge protectors." Are they also power conditioners?

I just found the Furman pl-plus series II new for $165... I might have to jump on this deal considering this particular furman usually goes for $200 new.
