Amp and preamp on same outlet?

jea48, ct0517's tech guy did not work at krell!, no one knows krell amp's like krell does them self's, and Dan D Agostino, and Steve Lacrone that use to be the service manager there at krell up to 2009, Steve Lacrone owns a company called, The service Department Home, he specializes in all Krell equipment among other brands he services too, you may do a web search and see the company, he is located in CT, not far from Krell.cheers Jim.

And to the OP, having your equipment on separate dedicated lines does improve the overall sound quality of your system. That is why ARC recommends it.
This does not mean that your system cannot sound good on a single outlet, just that it would sound better on separate circuits.
Best,

Ct0517, look, I do not know what krell amp you have or owned, my amp is hard wired straight to the power supply!, not going to any bus bars, there is none!,I myself have seen this inside my amp, and krell also has confirmed this to me!, my amp does NOT consume 30 amps!, it simply spikes over 20 amps, what I have tried to make clear to all of you, I have a 30 amp dedicated electrical line, a 30 amp single pole breaker, and a wpo that is 20 amp's but sustains the amp spikes over 20 amps with no issues, my amp runs smoother, cooler, bigger sound stage, hugely more dynamic, my amp is no longer choked by the 20 amp breaker.

thanks for clarifying the costs - that makes sense.

Well of course not he is Canadian. But he has worked on the Master Krell Ref's.
Can everyone working in the service dept at Krell these days say the same ?
Now..... I don't "really" care about the answer - just think about it.....

Ct0517, look, I do not know what krell amp you have or owned

Not sure why not. I show a virtual page. You can see what I have.

BTW what speakers are you using with the amp ?

I have a huge bag of the old parts!

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. After all the public chat forms imo are for learning sharing and a little fun.

here is a pic to give the others reading an idea

First off, Krell IS NOT recommending that you simply replace your 15A breaker with a 30A breaker. What they do recommend is that in order to get the best out of the amp, use a 30A breaker with the APPROPRIATE wiring on a DEDICATED line. Appropriate wiring would, of course, include the appropriate outlet and plug.

Thanks for clarifying Mrvordo.

My two rooms are in the basement adjacent to one another. B is closer to the Fuse panel over A the main room. I left a path - removeable ceiling - going from outside Room A, past Room B to the fuse panel for upgrades and changes. If I ever chose to add new line (30amp service), it would be very easy laying new line over the beams. The only costs being the electrician putting in the breaker.

Have a nice day. beautiful looking Sunday.

Happy Listening.

@Audiolabyrinth

one more thing :^)

when I asked..

BTW what speakers are you using with the amp ?

It is for purely my own selfish reasons, to determine how close your speakers amp requirements come to mine.

Cheers
