Re-wiring the listening room: Questions


FINALLY getting around to having some straight runs from the panel to the listening room.

My room is a basic rectangle with the speakers at 10:00 and 2:00, amps at 12:00, and equipment at 9:00.

Currently everything is fed via power near the equipment, also at 9:00, however I do have another outlet at 12:00.

Should I do two separate runs?

If so, do I want both individual runs available at the 9:00 and 12:00 positions?

Currently everything is plugged into an AQ Niagara, I have all digital and analog stuff powered via that same Niagara, however I could foresee adding a second power conditioner/distributor in the future to just serve the amps located at 12:00.

What should I do?

Thank you!

Nagel-

I didn't know cryo-d romex was a choice, and thanks for the "aftermarket" cable suggestions!!!

@britamerican I have 6 dedicated 20A circuits with 10awg wire, I'm only using 4 dedicated circuits at present, but there are no ground loops, and none of my equipment is using balanced connections.

Use MC Cable (metal clad). It provides a metal shield around each circuit home run. But you must have steel bracket boxes, plastic will not work.
