Using a UPS for amplifier power
I asked a question in this thread as a side note but no one has addressed it.

I have been using a big 1500 VA APC UPS that I got at work. I would like to know what people think about it.
I have 4 Yamaha Pro amps pluged into this thing. My thinking is that it has good surge and spike protection and has a battery back up that will pick up the power when it droops also. When a loud transient passage pulls down the amps that it will help maintain the amps power supply.
Can anyone come up with knowledge or an educated guess on this? Thanks.
Power Line Conditioners etc.
Scott and Alex I understand your reasoning in not useing power line conditioners for amps. Would this also apply to other audio equipment (preamps, tuners, cd players etc) ? Would a common surge protector strip be sufficent for the preamp/tuner/cd etc? I'm useing two Adcom 515 conditioners that are very "convenient" for powering on/off all my audio equipment/tv.
