I tried a variety of cords, stock a DIY a VH Audio cord and another silver cord. Either way no difference.
The thing is, I can usually tell [SEE] a difference when a connect something to my TV be it a cord or conditioner. But with this nothing.

How long has it been installed on your gear?
I have had the unit for about a year now. Tried it on both systems connected to the DAC and Pre mostly. When I decide to give it a try I usually let it stay in place for about a month or so...
Lately however it just sits in the corner not connected to anything. I should probably sell it...

Out of curiosity I tried a Soloist Premier on a dedicated 20 amp 10awg line on my Parasound Halo A21 what amazed me the most is that it sounded more powerful with deeper bass notes and a midrange to die for Psaudio claims no current restriction, and having it directly from the wall first I confirmed this to be in my case true. I also use a Quintet on second dedicated line 12awg 20amp with a power port premier for a 3channel amp, sub-woofer ,tv and source components and once again precieved increased dynamic range for top top bottom and clear separation between instruments,However Psaudio recomends the duet for amps over the Soloist, only for more enhanced filtering not because of current limitations. the best thing about the Soloist is no powercord to chose.
Just for kicks I connected it to my Aragon amp. I didn't hear any degradation in sound nor any improvements.
Only thing I don't like about that is going through another 6ft length of powercord. Guess it shouldn't matter since its already going through about 40ft+ romex to the room from the breaker box.
For the record I'm not tone deaf, I can hear differences between powercords, and I can hear a difference between the new outlet I installed vs the normal house outlet.

That's good, "do no harm first" is my take on conditioners and power amps, all I was looking for was just some protection when I'am away, but got more out of the Soloist.
For my power amps, they sound better with no AC conditioner.
I would have or use to until I installed the Soloist Premier on my Halo A21 on its own 10awg 20 amp circut,the Soloist came years after the dedicated line, the Soloist revealed a lower noise floor and better dynamics. Shades of mid-bass and lower octave detail i never Knew was there before ,plus the added benifit of not worring about surges.
Hey Mercman, just curious....have you changed your outlets?

I use 3 Oyaide SWO-XXX with the WPC-Z single outlet version mounting frames. Someday when I get motivated, I'll try the Oyaide RH with Acoustic Revive plates/frames.
