need more POWER

A report back...

I purchased the Wiremold L10320 powerstrip and it seems to be just the ticket !

Thank you to everyone !!!

Something that I wanted to add...I have an electric clock plugged into it as before with the cheapy strip. In the cheapy strip the clock would gain about a minute per month. Now with the Wiremold strip it does not gain or loose time at all !

Whoda thunkit ?

Happy tunes 

Stay safe...it ain't over yet !

Hello saki70 - The super Wiremold power strip in the link above is a great performer. Used mostly in Naim systems. There are no circuit breakers, no fuses, no on/off, lights and no switches, just pure non limiting current. The unit is star grounded/earthed. The entire unit has neen cryogenically treated, all parts. It contains 12 awg internal wiring and a 12 awg captive power cable with a Wattgate male plug.

I've used a 14 guage 9 outlet version in my system for 20 year. It’s good non filtered power.

Good luck!

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.   

Well first ... thank you all for your inputs 

A new power strip sounds , almost , too easy ! But great !

ghdprentice ; I was trying to avoid that if possible . Did it once for the main rig . Boy was the electrician annoyed at the 10 g. wire ! I pulled it but he still had to 

make the connections .

Off to score more POWER !!!

This should do the trick. 12 awg internal wiring, deep cryogenically treated outlets.

+1 for better power strip. The 20 amp line should have enough current for at least a 200 watt per channel amplifier.

This is the good sounding solution. If you are not ready yet… keep it in mind for later.
 

Add a two new direct lines. Direct lines from the breaker box significantly increase sound quality. One for the amp and one for the other audio equipment. You want the electrician to use 10 gauge wire. 

Direct lines remove your system from the regular household stuff… as most lines are connected in different areas. 
 

Replace that cheap power strip with a 20 amp one!
