I went from a dirty big city to a clean country and back to a clean big city. I kinda think it’s a crap shoot.
Best place to live for good quality power
For those of you who have traveled around the world with your hi-fi, what have you learned about where to live for the best power?
- Dense city but right near a substation
- Or far from a substation is ok, as long as few houses on the grid (rural)?
Etc
Some of you are into batteries, but lets talk about how location affects power.
thanks in advance

@nevada_matt the quality of your power with off grid solar is totally dependent on the inverter that the mass produced solar company provided. Not likely good. Jerry |
Antartica with refined solar battery system is any audiophile dream...not much RFI or EMI as in civilization or as in savage urban environment ...Out of blizzard day the noise level may be very low... Visitors are rare... Bill Gates put his stereo system there... I plan to do it very far from him...😁 The vibration is the main problem because of the shifting ice plates under you...You must pick the right spot... Far from noisy pinguins... Acoustic embedding are the same problem as anywhere else... 😁😊
But joking apart, i live in a small city with well managed electrical grid...my ONE single plug wall used only for my amplifier near the main central panel is very good... more improvement are always possible... But sometimes costs and work needed do not really compensate for the slight increase in S. Q. .. I am lucky...
