AC Power
So I guess that this means that the 240A breaker for my drier is using both legs? Correct. Hot L1 leg to Hot L2 leg measures 240V, nominal. L1 to neutral as well as L2 to neutral measures 120V, nominal. And also: the way you explained that ...

@signaforce said: Of a potentially more problematic nature, the Bonus Room leg on the fuse box includes 2 furnaces, 2 AC’s, 2 refrigerators. Looks like I need dedicated lines wired to the other leg. Sounds like you might be thinking all the ...

Interesting, my nephew thinks neither are worth the investment. His statement: “Do you have appliances on the circuit now? What kind of interference can they inject?...voltage drops would come from current draws...which trip breakers. Not steady ... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
I’ve found the best place to listen for differences in audiophile power cables is connected to digital equipment. Therein CDT and DAC. A couple of years ago my Son brought over a used NORDOST VALHALLA 2 power cord he had bought. He wanted me to t... 
Does this make sense
Not sure what your contraption does? It’s a P mount headshell. It has a arm finger lift. It has a fine tuning adjustment screw to dial in the cartridge/stylus alignment. Mass of the headshell? Just a guess it is low. No more than a standard ... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
The reason I am asking is I feel manufacturers of high quality components include all that is ever needed, power cable wise. . I’m just curious why many spend thousands of dollars on such when the manufacturer has taken the power cable into a... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
@aberyclark I doubt atmasphere reads through new threads/posts daily on Agon. Chances are he would miss this thread of yours. There is a way you might get his attention and he might respond to your thread. Might... JMHO, you come off with a negat... 
Sound proofing floor
It is a cement floor with an 8lb carpet pad and carpet. At 6 to 8 inches of cement, I live in Florida and the complex was built in 2006. I have no other noise issues, just through the floor. @rbull11 6" to 8" of poured concrete, "cement floor... 
Sound proofing floor
I’m in a condo and my downstairs neighbor can hear my music. I’m looking into putting a sound barrier over the cement floor and under the carpet. More information would be helpful. Concrete floor? Is the Condo a wood framing structure? Therein... 
Would it make sense and be safe to put power conditioner in front of PS Audio regenerator?
  But the dirty power happens outside the home Actually not. The majority of it happens within the home. and you can’t do anything about it with a dedicated line. Not most of the dirty power, but 100% of it so long as you have nothing else o... 
Would it make sense and be safe to put power conditioner in front of PS Audio regenerator?
Not in front of–but you could try beside. Use one for the source, the other for the amps. Use same twin outlet. Also try direct to the receptacle with no conditioners.  This brings up a thought after reading the post. I assume the output of th... 
Would it make sense and be safe to put power conditioner in front of PS Audio regenerator?
a dedicated line does almost nothing to improve the quality of the power--it ensures that you have adequate current. Strongly disagree... Depending on the wiring method(s) used for the in and out branch circuit wiring connections at every wall ... 
Would it make sense and be safe to put power conditioner in front of PS Audio regenerator?
I wouldn’t. It could restrict the power to the input of the Power Plant Premier. If anything just use a good 5ft or 6ft audiophile grade power cord. Minimum 12awg conductors. (Borrow for a listen before you buy, if possible) How tight are the wal...
