11-11-11: Albertporter Bruce, now I understand.
The system has fourteen dedicated lines, two are 8 gauge 240 volt and twelve are 12 gauge 125 volt. All runs are to twin Square D commercial panels with copper buss bar using Romex brand copper.
AC outlet boxes are (non magnetic) plastic/nylon. The Romex is hung in open air by oversize nylon tie wraps normally used for AC duct.
Outlets are mine, Porter Ports. AC cords are listed above. Purist Audio, all 25th Anniversary except for a couple of Purist Limited.
I have no filters or surge protectors anywhere except for the built in filter on the Purist AC cables. I've had bad luck with every other kind of AC filter I've tried. Usually compression of dynamics and / or rolled high frequencies and in some cases distortion.
I cannot stress enough the value of dedicated lines. Anyone who can avail themselves of that upgrade should do so. It's one of the least expensive and most important things you can do for a nice system and if you own your home, it can increase the value.
Thanks for the super kind remarks about my system. The massive rebuild a few years ago really took it's toll on us. I thought they would never get the job completed.
As mentioned earlier in this thread, every surface in the room is over built and acoustically treated. The room passes for paint over sheetrock in photos, many visitors don't know, even when they are here in person until I show them where treatment is.
