Any thoughts on which components are affected the most by outlets? If you only had one fancy outlet and two dedicated lines, would you use it for the front end components or the power amp?
Recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets
Greetings,
I’d like to get some recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets.
I currently have two PS Audio outlets in my current room, but my system will be relocated to its permanent location when I finish my dedicated listening room in a few months. I’m using 10 gauge Romex for the dedicated 20 amp outlets.
I have a few electrical outlets on my list of interest;
- Audioquest NRG Edison Duplex
- Pangea Audio Premier XL
- The Maestro Outlet (by Cruze First Audio) - *Great reviews on website and forums
- Hubbell outlet (not sure of any particular model number?)
Please share your impressions and any comparison experiences would be great.
Thanks in advance!

@ghdprentice That’s a great idea and the conclusion I have come to after careful thought. I think I’m going to go with the PS Audio Power Port outlets for now as I already have two of them and my system sounds great. The 10 gauge Romex should be an upgrade to begin with. @ditusa Thanks for your feedback and the links!

One Oyaide R0, Berylliium/copper NOT plated, others are Hubbell 5362W. Dedicated 20A circuit with independent surge suppressor. Keep in mind, “separate” ground at the panel, even a separate panel not bonded to the main breaker box STILL goes into the SAME ground (earth) as the other ground rod(s). Even if the ground rod is on the other side of the house there will be SOME interference, some energy exchange (ask Tesla how he lit up all those lamps in Colorado).
