This is plugged into a Furman PST-8D power conditioner. Question is this: would it be particularly unwise to place an Alexa "Smart Plug" in the middle, for some fun n funky home automation commands with Alexa? Proposed setup is as such: LPS > Smart Plug > PST-8D > (wall outlet) I've invested in this LPS and power conditioner—and all the other components in the PC including a JCAT USB card FEMTO—to optimize for audio quality. Would I be shooting myself in the foot by introducing something like this just for ease of use w/ voice commands? My gut says don't put a $10 piece of tech in between two several hundred dollar pieces of tech, which is why I'm posting this. But this may have no effect at all, which would be nice. Thanks in advance for your help 🙏🏻 The Smart Plug is only rated for 12 amps. The power conditioner is rated for 15 amps. You can definitely have issues.
