nice info, lalitk. I recently added 2 10 guage , 20 amp circuits for my amp(s), and 4 12 guage 20 amp circuits for the rest of the system while renovating my living room. I figured pretty much what the articles said, start with quality outlets and wires and you can't go wrong. Still sheetrocking (5/8) so I have not checked it all out yet.
Power conditioning from the ground up
I am exploring power conditioning for my rig. I have read plenty of threads where the opinions seem to be varied.
I am looking into replacing wall receptacles, adding a power conditioner, upgrading wiring to a thicker gauge and dedicating several breakers for my set-up.
Some questions I have:
If I had upgrade the wall receptacle but my in-wall wiring is subpar, will the wall receptable be redundant?
If you have a power conditioner but you have a cheap $1 duplex outlet, is the power conditioner redundant?
I am trying to better understand where my focus should be. In regards to what I am looking to achieve, I want the usual (blacker blacks, deeper soundfloor, wider soundstage, less grit, more details, etc.)
Ultimately, I would like to achieve as close to a holographic image as possible to where the image is suspended or hanging in the air. Maybe the answer to query isn't power conditioning, I would like to hear your ideas for how to achieve what I am seeking within my current set-up if possible:
VPI Scout 1.1
Soundsmith Zephyr MKII (HOMI)
Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum (KT120)
Zu Soul MKII
Zu cables
Thanks,
Aaron
