I would say more recently than that Jea, but I may be wrong. In any case, there are too many refurbished classics floating about to give a blanket assurance. Beware the two-prong plug!

It seems most look at dedicated lines as a way to isolate noise. MSB looks at it differently. According to MSB, the main goal should be to lower resistance. These are their guidelines that I followed and it has made a very nice difference for me. This dedicated line also only cost me about $300 to implement: http://www.msbtech.com/support/wiring.php?Page=supportHome For those whose homes aren't near a utility transformer and line noise is indeed an issue (i.e. listening at midnight yields better results than listening at 5 pm), here are a couple of products that you install at your panel that don't cost a ton of money and could make a difference. I don't have these products currently but I am curious about them. Any input from people who use these would be much appreciated: http://ep2000.com/uploads/EP-2050_SeriesSpecifications.pdf http://ep2000.com/uploads/EP_Ground%20Filter.pdf |
Agreed. I know MSB well (I own the MSB Analog DAC, which is awesome!). Vince Galbo taught me the importance of the lower reistance theory years ago and I rewired my old dedicated room with 6 AWG; it made a tremendous favorable difference. In my new house, I am using 6 AWG for All my dedicated audio outlets (Furutech GTX-G) and each outlet will be on individual 20A circuts. These all run to a dedicated service sub-panel in my room which is connected to the main panel by a 2 ought aluminum run. |
