AV Options Super Wiremold cryo treated power strip

Very likely it will.  I have there previous "Noise Trapper" (a product from several years ago) which I found to be a noticeable upgrade, similar to maybe 1/2+ of a Powerline,  I have recently acquired 5 of their deep cry treated Tibia power chords, which I find to be excellent sound quality per dollar.  But I have not heard this power strip yet, only because I am spending my money on other things at this time.  Do they have a return policy?

I assume you are in North America...

I have one and I like it very much.   Get it now before they can't get the basic wire mold strips any more.

Thanks Charlie, did you have all your boxes plugged directly into wall outlets prior to getting the AV options power strip? That is my situation. I use power lines from all my boxes except my 01.

@Skip

Did you compare this to the Audience PDC?

Hi Charlie

Just to clarify ...

The Noise Trapper-Cable Pro is NOT an AV Options product, and NANA stopped recommending it back in 2007. AV Options has never recommended it.

I had all my boxes plugged into a Wiremold power strip (not deep cryo treated).  Sorry, should have said that in my first post.

Charlie

Chris, I respect your opinion and have heard the same opinion from others.  I am putting the AVOptions unit on my Christmas List.

Charlie

I did not.  I had had a TG Audio Bybeesucker.  The AV Options is a bargain by comparison and works well with Naim. 

still would like to know if anyone has gone from plugging all boxes directly into the wall socktets vs plugging into Super Wiremold Cryo treated strip.

I have the PDC. As with the Noise Trapper, which I had previously, a Lingo or a Radikal should be left plugged into the wall rather than the box.

I'd be curious to know if anyone has compared the PDC with the new and improved Wiremold.

Sorry, too many boxes, not enough wall sockets.

Perhaps Chris will give you a return option, and you can try it for yourself.

I did briefly test the the av options cryo wiremold with my original 2 plug system just to see if it degraded the sound.  I was expecting/hoping for transparency - curiously it seemed an improvement compared to plugging everything into the standard cheap receptacle in the wall.  It did seem to have it's own sonic signature at first (lean and detailed).  I kept it in place for a couple of weeks only before I started adding power supplies - no extensive burn in was done.  I think it's a good product - especially at the price.  

Indeed, in the manual for our strip we advise a few weeks of burn-in is all that's needed before getting the best results. Glad to hear you are pleased with it :-)

Cheers,

JR,

I'd be curious about comparisons you've found between the PDC and the Noisetrapper.

I run a full AV Options AC power distribution system: AV Options SuperWiremold Deep-Cryo power strip and AV Options TibiaPlus Deep-Cryo AC cables all fed by a dedicated AC circuit. It's a significant improvement over the CablePro "NANA" and stock Tibias I was using previously. For any Naim system owner in the USA and Canada the AV Options AC power distribution products are very high performance for excellent value solution.

Joerand--The Noise Trapper was a huge improvement over the original Wiremold, and one of my biggest VFM acquisitions, I've gone on and on about it a couple of times on this site. The PDC brought more swing, musicality and believability to the party. It was much more a feeling than new instruments popping out of the woodwork.

Jay--My experiences exactly. Did you get the cryoed outlet as well? Thank goodness the electrician was skinny enough to get behind my speaker to install it. I couldn't have done that.
