We do not recommend external voltage regulators because we found that in many cases they cause more harm then help. The amps and power supplies in the L1 use highly efficient switching technology, Many voltage regulators are not a good fit for this technology since they are simply not fast enough. | |||
:The L1 is designed to be quite resistant against any AC voltage swings and will operate fine even down at 97 Volts. | :The L1 is designed to be quite resistant against any AC voltage swings and will operate fine even down at 97 Volts. | ||

I hate to rain on anyone's parade, but we Bose designers do not believe that a power conditioner provides more headroom, dynamics, better sound, or more fidelity for our equipment. | |||
:There are a number of technical reasons for this that I won't go into online, but a good way to think of it is that we have already put in all the power conditioning required to make the products sound as good as possible. | :There are a number of technical reasons for this that I won't go into online, but a good way to think of it is that we have already put in all the power conditioning required to make the products sound as good as possible. | ||
