Dedicated 20 Amp Line for Audio


Lots of threads on the subject already, but I’m a little confused on one thing. Is the dedicated line just for the amplifier (in my case an integrated) and another line for the other components? Or, is it just one line for everything in the complete audio system?

Thanks!

lancelock - Looks intersting (and expensive). I will contact Well pleased Audio on Monday and check it out.

auxinput - invalid: I was starting to think #10 was the ticket, but you’re right #12 with it’s better flexability should be sufficient. Or possibly the product lancelock recommends above?

If I’m only running one line (most recommended way to do it here) I will need less than 50’

I would like to add that I did run 2ga wire to a sub-panel as close as possible to my listening room. This enabled me to run the quality Giga cable a much shorter distance and then the size doesn't matter as much. Ohms law, shorter distance means less resistance.

Again, how do you know all this stuff!

This is perfect, as I work in Canada (getting paid in Dollarettes) so I can ship it to my office there and just bring it across the border myself and hopefully save a bunch on shipping.

The electrician will be on-site very soon and I will see how much  we need before I order it.

Thanks again for all your help!

I have two dedicated 20 amp circuits. I use one for the amp, and place everything else on the other. I have two quad sets for a total of 8 plug-ins in my audio room. I don’t use line conditioner’s. This is good enough.
