Your One Bullet Point Solution; Electrical Upgrade
I've seen some where they put a surge protector on the main and sub panel that might be something you'd want to ask your electrician about.

Lyngdorf - New System
Since noone has chimed in that has those products which Lyngdorf were you thinking of? Magicos are not considered an easy load. Where you thinking room correction would help with all that glass? I have an Anthem STR integrated with ARC that does a...
