I already have two fully loaded 6 gang surge protected extension leads (standard B&Q jobs) connected to my double wall socket for my AV gear.
However a recent reckless splurge on the credit card has resulted in a need for at least 3 more sockets.
So I'm thinking why not get a mains purifying one as I have to upgrade anyway e.g. Soundfantastic. These come in 4, 6 or 8 socket flavours. So before deciding which one (or two) to get I need to know which of my devices will benefit.
Do these things REALLY improve video quality as well as audio?
If so, taking Sky+ as an example, I have 6 powered components involved just on the video side:-
Plasma
Sky+ box
Quinttro scart switching box
iScan video processor
RGB2YUV signal converter
Aspect Ratio Controller
Would ALL these components need to be connected to a mains purifier extension i.e. if one (or more) of them was connected to a B&Q one would this cancel the benefit of the others being mains conditioned?
As is probably obvious I know nothing about mains.
Any advice appreciated,
troy
