Is is true that power adapters that use clean power technology produce a better picture on your television?
That all depends on what you and the manufacturer means by the term “clean power technology”. There are several types of systems that are used to remove hash from the power line and to limit the amount of hash injected back into your home’s electrical system from A/V products (mainly digital noise). Some provide some form of current or voltage limitation that prevents noise spikes from damaging your electronics. There are a host of power bars that offer some sort of over-voltage protection. The power bar takes the hit when lighting strikes your power lines, instead of your television. Most of these also offer some line filtering to remove transient noise. These can help to some extent, but many models place inductors in series with the 120VAC power, which can limit how quickly your equipment can draw current. This problem affects amplifiers the most severely, as they cannot draw power quickly enough to reproduce high-level transients properly. A couple of the better products in this ra
