I was trying to ask this power in the mini power distro thread, but didn't get any responses so here goes..
I don't really know anything about this power stuff.
I need a solution for plugging all my gear into and I feel like I'm losing out on something by purchasing a $5 power strip at my local supermarket. If I have $75, is there something better I can go with? Would getting a $75 powerstrip be an improvement in sound quality / LCD TV picture over a $5 power strip? Is there another option besides a power strip? Like a power conditioner of some sort?
Basically, this is what I want to hook up:
*Powerbook
*External Hard Drive
*Tube Preamp
*Small Speaker Amp (trends t-amp)
*DAC
*Active Subwoofer
*Small LCD TV
I remember along time ago I plugged a bunch of stuff in to a power strip and all my power went out. I really don't want this to happen so do I need specific type of powerstrip here?
Can somebody recommend me something around $50 - $75? I live in Italy, so it has to have the 220v round prong things.
Another question, I have alot of gear from the US. I have to use these cheap adaptor tips in order to plug into the wall (the gear in question all supports 220v though), are these adaptors "clean", another word's do they have any effect on the power, which could ultimately effect my equipment?
