many amp manuf.suggest plugging the amp directly into the wall and the front end into a p/c. If your p/c has surge suppression, you are losing that as to your amp ( won't protect you from lightning anyhow)but some p/c will clip power from the amp so thats the trade. Some amps (mac)supposedly have built in protection so not losing anything there.As an example, Richard gray p/c claims their p/c's don't clip and p/c protection inures to both outlets when plugged into one so you could go all into their p/c.
Use both outlets or just one?
I don't have dedicated line and have one double outlet to use for my system. I use one outlet for my amp (plug in direct), and the other outlet to use with my power conditioner (CDP, TV, DVD player,...). Is it better to use just one outlet for the whole system, or split like I am doing?
Thanks.
Thanks.
