For my HT rig, I use a Niles IPC-12 power conditioner/ switcher and I love it. That said, I don't connect my amps through it (they're connected directly to the wall outlet).
I am considering adding a PS Audio Ultimate Outlet for my amps to clean up the AC from the wall and provide a sense of security for my investments.
My amps are Parasound HCA 2200 MkII (250w x 2) and a Parasound HCA 2205 (220w x 5).
I guess it's a given that I should get the (seemingly highly-recommended) 20 amp Ultimate outlet, but I'm wondering a couple of things...
These questions will sound stupid (please resist the temptation to flame the dumb guy), but to connect to the 20A version, do I need special cords/plugs for my amps or will the cords that came with them be OK? Equally stupid, I assume the 20A will connect to a standard (hospital grade, in my case) wall receptacle without need of a specific cord?
I'm thinking I should be fine with the standard-type plugs/outlet on both my cables and wall outlet.
can somebody please help me answer this and provide me with some feedback on my plan?
Thanks for your patience and input,
