I opted for the cheaper one,
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006HPFHafter some research that convinced me that in theory there is no improvement in the sound from using hospital grade connectors. I have no direct experience, so I cannot give you my hands-on opinion on that, except to say that I have read discussions among audiophiles (that must be what we are) and some seemed to say that aside from the better physical contact, with all its advantages, there is little or no improvement soundwise. It would also make sense. Steve does recommend the hospital grade iso transformer in one of his papers though.
He reassured me per email that the current draw of my Mini Torii and cd player would not exceed its output in terms of amperage (the wattage is 250, with the Mini t consuming 75 at max output)
I totally dislike the sound when I plug my system into the tripp lite alone. It is undetailed and recessed, no sparkle, no passion.
I plug both cd player and Minitorii into a 400$ Monster Power conditioner with 2 separate iso filters for analog and digital and everything is restored!
The tripp lite does come with a rather thin power cord. I fitted it with an iec connector and a thick gauge power cord and I noticed a difference in the bottom end.
I tend to think that I am using cheap low quality conditioning components with a high quality system, but who knows if those expensive power conditioners really are that much better. I don't.
