Zaikesman, I have to get the Marshall (50 watt head with open back slant cab with 4-25 watt green Celestion speakers) out of the vault. It has been in there for a few years now and it is time to crank it up to some Allman Brothers at the Filmore. I was there when they did the record. During one of the solos, you can here my friend scream out "play all night". The Brothers will be at the Beacon NYC in March for 15 or more shows and I go every year with the good old boys.
I was even going to go so far as to install an IEC into my Fender Vibro King amp and try some power cords on it, maybe get some Cardas wire and roll some tubes! JPS and Auddience even sell guitar cords but they cost about $300 for 15 feet, well maybe next time.
For some of the other questions, I did not use a sub panel because the electrician used duplex breakers that fit into a one breaker slot. Ran three lines 2-20 amp and 1-15 amp into round 10 guage romex grounded to the panel as normal. I installed 20 amp hospital grade duplex outlets and will go with cryo treated since I can install them myself later on. I have a finished basement and the equipment is on a custom wall unit that protrudes into the back room with washer/dryer, etc., so the AC cords run through the back of the unit into an open room where the outlets are, so as long as the cords fit through the holes, I can just plug them in with no effort. I also have the existing outlets there so I can do a quick switch to hear the differences.
Stehno, will get around to auditioning some of those conditioning power cords you pointed me to along with the Elrods, Shunyata, Virtual Dynamics and AZ soon. I have the Audience, Shunyata and AZ Hologram speaker cables waiting to audition here now.
Here is a link to my original questions that everyone helped me with:
