Designer in wall wiring - worth it?
I have two dedicated outlets for my system using standard 12 gauge with short runs of about 15' to the breaker box. I used 12 gauge in this case due to the very short runs. I have recently experienced some very positive results with Audience speaker and ethernet cables, and it got me thinking it would not be crazy money to try the Audience in-wall shielded 10 gauge cable. Has anyone tried the Audience cable or other "designer" AC cabling? Did you find it to be a significant upgrade?
@audphile1 Not a bad idea, I already have two circuits, and could just rewrite one of them. @jmrrobbie1 As it happens, due to a small addition to our house a few years back, we had the panel upgraded to 200 amp service and buried to the pole. The grounding cable is a large braided copper line that runs to the other end of the basement to the copper water line. All well done and inspected. |
@jea48 I compared the P15 ground to the wall ground again today, and it was zero, as it should be. However to recreate the conditions that I measured previously, I would have to move the amp from the P15 to the second wall circuit and measure again. I will if I get the time. |
@zlone well that’s perfect! Rewire one and see what that gets you. What outlets you have? |
@audphile1 Furutechs. Specifically, Furutech GTX-D NCF(R) Ultimate Nano-Crystal Rhodium-Plated AC Duplex Receptacle. |
@jea48 as far as I know the audience hidden treasure in wall cable has all the proper certifications to pass an inspection. |
