Obviously the point I made is: any degradation in signal quality happenning entirely due to design sins found internal to a piece of gear would be completely irrelevant to the signal degradation being caused by grid issues propagating through an improperly designed power supply. It's pretty simple really. You made a comment to mkuller about how people always concentrate on grid issues when they should be worrying about internal problems. I merely pointed out the obvious that this is irrelevant to the topic of discussion since the topic of discussion IS grid issues.
Now, clearly the statement you made: "as found at my outlets" is ridiculous because why in the hell would the OP care about what is at your outlets, but even still what would be really amusing is watching you try and convince me or anyone that somehow your power conditioner prevents grid issues from getting to your outlets. In fact, that would be funny I bet.
Since you obviously consider yourself special in some way as to be unaffected by grid issues, which BTW is impossible as I pointed out in a post below unless you are recieving power from an alternative power source other than the grid, here is an experiment for you to try which should allow you to see why it isn't true no matter how great the filtering your conditioner has. While you are listening to tunes unplug this conditioner you have from the grid over several hours listen to see if there is ever a difference in sound quality. If there s ever in the course of time a change in sound quality due to unplugging the power conditioner then you to ar obviously affected by at least the grid issue you just simulated, ie the unfortunate but fairly common downed power line blackout condition.
