Focusing on HT, one 20 amp outlet should be plenty. The good news is since it is 20amp, it should be 12 gauge from the breaker box.
Focus on heavy power cables downstream of the wall outlet.
"power strip" is a dirty word in audiophile circles.
need more POWER
I have an area for HT that has only one 20 amp receptacle . It currently
has an integrated amp using one outlet and a cheap power strip plugged
into the other outlet . The power strip is powering a flat screen tv and an electric
clock .
I want to add an amplifier to the pre/out of the integrated amp . How can I get
sufficient power to the second amp ? I am not sure if a power strip can deliver
the power that an amplifier (SS or tube) will require for proper operation plus
the other items .
Thank you .
