I do own my house, and will look into making dedicated lines to the room. That sounds like good advice, and a good place to start. I do hear noise in my speakers when the amp is on and no music is playing -would this be considered background noise from A/C, or just normal amp noise?
To Filter or Not To Filter . . .
I don't know if I have a problem that needs fixing. I live in Northern California and currently do not implement any sort of power filtration, conditioning, or surge protection devices. In short of trial and error, how do I know if I need these or not? I am currently using rhodium A/C receptacles with VH audio flavor 4 power cables with rhodium connectors. Thanks!
