Tripp lite LCR2400 as a power line conditioner?? (1 Viewer)

[Kevin. W]

Just curious if anyone could give some feedback on the Trippe Lite LCR2400. It seems to do the same as the Monster AVS2000 but at a fraction of the cost. definitely has the power output to handle a hungry HT. Here's a link.




DESCRIPTION

Tripp Lite's LCR2400 automatic voltage regulation system offers complete protection from brownouts, overvoltages and transient surges in a convenient rackmount format using only 3 rack spaces (3U). Transformer-based voltage correction circuits maintain usable 120V nominal AC output during brownouts as low as 87V and overvoltages to 140V. Network grade equipment protection offers AC surge and noise suppression. Supports heavy loads up to 2400 watts. Includes 14 NEMA5-15R output receptacles (2 front, 12 rear), 12-ft. line cord and 7 diagnostic LEDs that display incoming voltage level. $25,000 Ultimate Lifetime Insurance (USA & Canada Only).

Kevin,

You might want to send Bill Kane an e-mail or PM. He’s the resident expert on these things.

do you have problems with your incoming voltage that would require such a unit?

No Idea. Just found this when I was surfing the web and thought for the price it maybe worth it.

Well that's a tough call and if there's nothing wrong with your current electrical power, then it remains to be seen what putting this into your system would do. Kind of like taking tylenol and you don't have a headache or putting premium gas into a low compression engine. It doesn't hurt and it stimulates the economy but maybe there are better ways of improving your existing system. Acoustic improvements?

When we were going through brown out hell, my preamp kept losing synch. I determined it was because the voltage dropped and bought a smaller triplite to feed my preamp. Never had a problem after I hooked it up.
I highly recommend it.
