I've got a Wadia 861 (not -se) purchased in 1998 and the manual says the same thing. I believe Wadia's intent was to avoid complaints from use of incompatible power conditioners, but it certainly makes them look silly. To be charitable, power conditioners were not well developed in 1998, and neither were power cords.I can assure you that my Wadia, on its own dedicated 20-ampere circuit, certainly does benefit from power cord and power conditioning treatments. It does NOT like to share a circuit with a power amp!
Another useful tweak for this model is to remove the pointy feet and support the player on roller-ball suspension devices. Horizontal freedom allows it to reveal more detail. Be sure the power cord and interconnect cables do not restrict the horizontal motion, and that the vertical support is solid.
