Ksales offers good advice (a little tongue and cheek as he recommended us, and we do appreciate it). But seriously, the equi-tech is a very good product, very well engineered and I can strongly recommend it if you plan to be in this house for a long time. It is expensive, but it is probably the best designed balances power supply available, and in my opinion worth it for the long haul--one item you will not be upgrading. In regards to hiring an acoustical consulting firm like ours, even with my very biased opinion, it is money very well spent. For new construction, it is a pitance of the cost and results in a far better listening room. Please visit our website at www.rivesaudio.com.
Building an Audio/Video Room / Setting-Up Power
I am starting to design plans for building a new Audio / Video Room. The room will be a new 2-story addition to my home (approx 20 x 25 feet each floor). The downstairs will be a children's PlayRoom. The A/V room will be on the second floor (another issue is making the structure extremely solid and sound-proof). Additionally, the 2nd floor will have storage, component racks and a bathroom located behind the wall that will have the viewing screen.
ELECTIC POWER: I intend on installing a Sub-Panel designated only for the A/V System. However, I am interested in a basic outline as to other matters such as POWER SOURCE, POWER CONDITIONING, in-wall WIRING, GROUNDING, etc.
I am not an Electrician, so your basic explanation would be appreciated. In turn-I wish to incorporate your ideas into my plans and hire a competant Electrician.
Thanx.
