Power me Up


I am having power problems. Or should I say lack of power in my AC outlets. By the time the current gets to my living room outlets I often lose power when I play louder. I did put in PS outlets and then run into a Triplite for protection. The rest of my gear is:

Thule CD100
Rega Gyrodec, Brit Audio RB-250, Dynavector 20Xh.
Reflection Audio OM-1 preamp
Herron mono block amps
Audio Physoc Virgo II
Coincident IC and power cords
Polk Cobra speaker wire

Do I need a "regenerator" like a BT or ps Audio or what would give me a more stable current? I'm also going to remodel a couple of years so I can do the dedicated thing then. What's good for now?

By "running out of power" do you really mean "power"? If you do, I can't see how anything short of an energy storage system will work for you... According to my HS physics, P=IV, so if you use some device to compensate for a voltage (V) drop, you will end up being able to pull less current (I) given a constant P (power) from the electric co. If you do the reverse and ensure high current, your voltage will drop. The only way of adding power is to store it--batteries or capacitors. So, new outlets/power strings won't do a damn thing. Look for a device with a really large capacitor bank in it... Either that or turn off other power drains in your house.
