120 or 240 AC current, Which one do you like best?


All of my gear (Linn) can be operated at either 120 or 240
volts. Would like to know which one is better in terms of
noise, voltage drop, stability, etc. I once heard a main frame computer instaler say that noise from a 240 V. outlet was lower due to cancellation from the two hot lines. I have asked several other people on this matter but have gotten all kind of stories.I am in the process of installing dedicated lines, 10 AWG wires with isolated ground. Any help or technical information will be very much apreciated. Thanks.

220 / 240 would be preferred if possible for multiple reasons. Just make sure that ALL of your gear is capable of running at those voltages. You may want to run an extra 110/120 line for future purchases or temporary use "just in case". Sean
