Powerlines for home theatre

Posted by: Pawson6844 on 16 April 2017

Hi

does anyone use or have tried powerlines on their home theatre equipment?

thinking of my five channel power amp and subwoofer?  

Wondering if there are improvements with other brands equipment.

The Chord Power Chord makes a difference to my previous Pioneer plasma, but can't use it on my current LG OLED, as it has own captive lead. I now use my Power Chord on the sub. Never tried a Powerline, too expensive.

I briefly tried a PL on my AV receiver but didn't stick with it.

AV and Home Theatre is not about subtly and nuances; any benefit was completely drowned out.

I've tried a powerline on my Oppo 203 and it made a sizeable difference both to picture and sound (currently using the 203 as processor and source intro 82/sc/250 with a 175). 

 

Not convinced that I'd permanently put one in rather than spend a little more to move up to the 205, but will try a Powerline Lite and see what that does.
