Hi all,
Was interested in hearing forum members experience utilizing this Torus Power Conditioner, and in particular with MSB components. For the last three years, it has served as the electrical/power source for my dedicated listening system. From it I run three dedicated / isolated 20 amp circuits that power the system described in my signature below. I had blindly assumed that it was providing plenty of power and headroom for my gear vs. impeding its performance. That was until a couple weeks ago when a local MSB dealer paid me a visit and immediately suggested that I grab a cheap 30 foot extension cord from my garage, plug all my components into it (specifically, an MSB S202 amp and Shunyata Denali (that conditions power for my sources)) and then plug said cheap 16 gauge extension cord into a random general purpose power receptacle in my listening room. Low and behold, the compression and congestion in my system disappeared and became much more extended, dynamic and effortless. With that said, before reconfiguring my power configuration, which would likely entail bypassing the Torus All-In-One panel and placing the dedicated circuits in a standard sub panel, I'd value input from dealers/members who have experience with the Torus All-in-One panels...were they a net positive or negative to the sound, and in my particular case, could other issues exist, such as a poor ground that could be contributing to the impairment of sound quality? Obviously, I'm hopeful that I can continue to keep the All-in-One in my "power path" but not at the expensive of sound quality.
Thanks in advance!
