Title: Power conditioners, surge protectors etc....
Post by: balou2 on October 07, 2007, 06:41:56 PM

I don't have any $$ to spend now, but I'm looking at the pros and cons of power conditioners and surge protectors.

My home viewing is this:

Toshiba 47HL167 Regza LCD flat panel
Toshiba A-30 HD-DVD player
Sony ES receiver

What are folks' opinions on power conditioners and the likes?  I hear mixed reviews, in all levels of tech forums.  Some say yes, some say no.

check the playback forum, there's some good discussion in there on this.

From an audio perspective adding power conditioning was a big bang for little buck. Logically I would think that video would also benefit from clean(er) power.
