UPS systems...

I've heard of many UPS power conditioners built for hi end audio can cost thousands of dollors. I also know that UPS systems for computers can be had for under a hundred bucks. what is the difference? is there a difference? Would it actually make the sound any better?

Yoda,
I believe pure sine wave UPSs are difficult to come by and that's why they're expensive. Commonly available UPS systems for computers may not have pure sine wave output and therefore may cause more harm than good. I believe there's a thread here that explains it,
