I was thinking of upgrading the power before the individual power supply to LPS for my system.

1. Computer/Streamer STreacom has its own built in psu.
2. GamerPC
3. Display
4. iFi Diablo
5. JCAT USB PCIE XE will buy LPS for it.
6. Chord TT2 using standar psu
7. Headphone amp, not jet bought the amp

Isn´t it a good idea to start with mains before the individual psu of the devices?

Couple of other questions
Will I be able to connect gamerpc(400 watts) to a power conditioner?
How about power connectors with only two pins. Will they benefit without the earth pin?

Lots of choices in that price bracket. Maybe the Audioquest Niagara 1200?

Thats what I would get, if I didn't have a power conditioner already.

Thats the one I always get when I search in google/youtube…but

Then I hear/read that people sell em after some time and realise the soul is back in the sound.

So something tells me I should buy a surgeprotector and better psu for the devices

Maybe this could help narrow your choices.

There are quite alot of options really in that price range.

Maybe @cdacosta could recommend something.

The things I actually emphasize on is ground issues and surge protection. DC blocking is in somewhere between this two things I guess.

I dont want something that “EQ” the sound. Just lower noise from the mains

I see, in that case you could do what I did.

I have a furutech etp80 and an ifi supanova as the power cable for it, the ifi cable has built in surge protection and the furutech plc is very basic and doesn't do heavy filtering.

For some extra noise reduction you could try using sendust or copper tape on the breaker box.

Ok that sounds interesting. Noted Thanks

At this price I read good things about:
InAkustik AC3500P

Never heard it myself tho

Wow nice didnt know they made these. Only cables

Definitly gonna look into that one

 

[iFi audio]

the ifi cable has built in surge protection

That's true, yes. Our SupaNova also measures incoming noise and injects its opposite wave to invoke the cancellation effect, so in that sense it's an active cable. Hope this helps, thanks!

There was one review of PSM156M at 6moons here: https://6moons.com/audioreview_articles/puritan/

Im abit hesitant of buying these purifiers in general. I dont hope they smooth things out too much. Its not every dac/amp that needs it I think. So I am looking for something that does not do too much…

Example. The ifi purifier3 I used for RME DAC FS, because I find the sound very harsh. It literally makes that dac better after experimentation….

Does my TT2 needs it, didnt even bother because it sound real good not harsh but defined.

So I am abit hesitant. Stories about people selling there conditioners, and experiencing better results.

It's all relative. Some folks appreciate extra smoothness and cleaner background conditioners usually provide, but others like the bite they get without such power components in their setups. To try one and find out for yourself whether they work for you or not is the best way to move forward. But if you like what our iPurifier does, the odds are that you'll be happy about similar gains elsewhere
