I am looking for some advice concerning selection of equipment to protect my system from a/c poor power conditions in Florida. I have a Torus AVR20, Toroidal Isolation Power Transformer, that I am putting in front of my equipment to clean up the power and also to protect it from lighting for which Florida is famous for. I wanted to know if anyone ever tried using a high end UPS (2000VA/1800 watts) plugged directly into the wall to feed power to their system.
In Florida we have blackout, brownouts and surges anytime during the day/night with sever events occurring during storms. The UPS would help to provide a short runtime so my equipment doesn't power off and on to bridge short term events, which otherwise may be potentially harmful conditions to my equipment. I have previously awoken to my woofers popping if the servo-amp cycles on/off many time.
Has anyone ever tried this and if yes, can to share if this degraded your system performance. My concern is destroying dynamics of the music. thanks
Joe
