I like overkill on the conductor size from cb or fuse panel to receptacle, so it is 10/3 solid copper at my house. Really just do it for minimum ground circuit resistance and stereo system sourced electrical noise considerations, can't say that I could have heard a difference with more standard size wire, but overkill was only an additional $20.00 or so in my case. Other thing, I don't run the dedicated circuit parallel to any other wiring circuits, I imagine this is covered elsewhere, but just in case.
the next step--20 amp circuit
I've upgraded components (most are close to the best I can afford), changed from a long speaker run/short interconnect configuration to the opposite (long XLR and short speaker cables), upgraded the cables at the same time, done the isolation bit, changed to hospital grade cryogenically treated outlets (my girlfriend just shakes her head) etc...
So, the next logical step I suppose is better power.
What are the key elements on which to focus (amperage,type of wire,etc)...
And, does anyone have recommendations on a good electrician who's done this in the Tidewater area of Virginia? Since my house is on a crawl space I hope to avoid a bunch of holes in walls...
