All the above advice sounds like a ground loop just waiting to happen.
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!

@ghdprentice Personally, I would run three dedicated lines. One line at 12:00 and two lines at 9:00. That should cover any additional growth and give you an opportunity to keep digital equipment on its own line.

that sounds an awful lot like 3 separate circuits, each with a possible different ground potential. I believe you intended to suggest 3 branches on the same circuit. Please clarify if I misunderstood 🙂 |
