There have been some manufacturers that recommend not plugging their amps in certain conditioners, when I get home I'll see if I can find the list, outlaw might know quicker lol.. again looms nice!

I was concerned also so I contacted Outlaw before I ordered the amps, as I do not have enough wall outlets for 3 monoblocks, to confirm the conditioner would work and they assured me it would and to use the 3 of the four amplifier points on the conditioner.

That said, I’d love to see the list you’re referring to, what’s the source?

I know Emotiva recommends to plug their amps directly into outlets as they have their own protection built in. I have been using Emotivas for most of the year (XPA 5 gen 2 and XPA 7 gen 3), and also recently upgraded to the Martin Logan LCRs, same as yours (60xts and 50xt).
I was really glad to read your thoughts, and have been quite pleased with them personally (had them for about 3 weeks now). I replaced a set of Def Techs (BP8 -the original line, and CLR2002). I've been wanting to achieve a more refined, laid back high end, without losing the spaciousness and soundstage of a tower bipolar. The ML ribbon tweeters are something else!
I actually just got in a Parasound A 21, with a A 51 on the way. I know you were curious about getting one yourself. I can share my thoughts if you're curious. I'm curious on the Outlaw MBs as well.

Sorry after you mentioned you contacted them, I didn't look. It was floating around AVS around 06, I'll see if I can dig it up on vacation for your records..
