UPgradeing dedicated line components

I have a similar system,in that my two power amps are on two separate dedicated lines, and so is the cd player on a third dedicated line.
The phono stage, TT,and Lightspeed attenuator(for the cd/sacd player)are plugged into a Hydra8 power conditioner, also on a foutrh separate, but not dedicated line.
Dedicated lines are great, but I wanted an even more direct route from the panel to my gear.
So I did away with power cords and outlets,and instead of those what I have done is to terminate each of the 3 dedicated lines with a Furutech F1 48(R) plug.So that's two mono power amps and one SACD being powered up with no breaks from the panel,except for the IEC's.
This I think is worth stating.

The money saved on after market power cords and outlets(I now have spare Shunyata Anncondas and my Furutech GTX D is on the 4th non dedicated line)could better be spent on upgrading the IEC at the end of your dedicated lines and plug them into your gear.
I find this has given me more of all the things we are always searching for.
I always believed in the less is more type of audio and this set up is proof enough for me.
A few years ago I rained down all manner of criticism towards those I labelled "wall pluggers".
I still feel upgraded power cords, conditioners,and wall outlets are still needed when dedicated lines aren't an option.
But becoming a "panel plugger" is now where I feel most comfortable.

Yes they are but # 10 guage, and the breakers are 20 amp.

I really wasn't expecting that much of an improvement when I replaced the entry level Cu IEC from Furutech with the Furutech FR 48 R.

Wow.
I was curious if I would notice much if any improvement,because the entry level IEC Furutechs were much better than the stock ones, how much better could it get?
I am glad my curiosity got the better of me.

A bit off topic,but I also did another upgrade to the RCA connectors on my 25 foot IC.
They had decent WBT type locking connectors.
I replaced those with Furutech CR 102 R.

Again I wasn't expecting a great difference,the IEC replacement was a gem, could I get lucky twice?

Yes.

The sound just tightened up even more, more reverb details and trails, and a smoother sound to massed violins.
I never heard Lambchop Mr M, Antony and the Johnsons strings sound as clean and full bodied as they do now, and I haven't even put more than 2 hours on these upgrades.
If more playing time brings further enhancements,this will have proven to be one of my better upgrades.

The lesson I have learned is that the connectors play a crucial role in shaping the sound.

I envy you.If I could I would do the same.
Looking forward to your posts.

I run three dedicated lines from 20 amp breakers using #10 solid core romex.Not a fancy professional job, but the results are worth the effort.
I run one line directly from the panel into my Shunyata power conditioner using a Furutech 20 amp connector.
Each power amp is also wired direct from the panel with Furutech connectors at the end of the wire and at the amp.

I was using mostly dIY room treatment,but in March I bought 2 ceiling mounted clouds and 4 corner traps for the wall behind my Acoustats(floor to ceiling).
I have a half trap 16 ASC trap in my third corner, the fourth corner is open to a stair way.First reflection points and the area behind and in the centre of the speakers are currently DIY absorbing panels, which will be replaced in the future with GIK products.
I also have an array of ASC mini traps on the wall behind the listening seat and a DIY centre absorber in the centre which I will also replace with a GIK product.

The power and room treatment aspects of this hobby were always put on the back burner,only to be considered when I had found a system that I could live with for the long haul.

I am sure in hindsite, had I addressed these issues in the past I could have saved myself a lot of money and frustration flitting from amp to amp, speaker to speaker.But that's all part of the game.

However,the room and the power delivery affects everything, so do it right and whatever you have will sound it's best.
A lesson learned, but never too late.

I understand my set up is not in compliance,but it works for me.
The wires are not in contact with any carpets or surfaces that could become flammable.

I think I have read about fires starting with electric wiring buried behind dry wall and wood framing, so perhaps the code has it's flaws.

In reality, what I am doing is no different than someone using extension cords.

I can break the signal at the amp, it's not hardwired, which I believe is a valid code violation.

So, are the folks who run extension cords to their amps from a wall socket also violating the electrical code?

How about the fellow with a current hungry amp using sub standard 18 guage extension cord?
I could see that wire overheating in this case.

10 guage romex, not so much.
If it's going to overheat and cause a fire, then there's more chance of that when it's buried behind insulation in a wall.

I am not stating that what I do should be done by anyonelse.

If such a reactor based system made the music sound better then I'm in favour of it.
It's all about the music afterall.

Just respect the music by doing all you can to reproduce as much of it as is possible.

What good is ten thousand lps' when all you can hear is 10% of the music that's in them?

That's just as absurd in my book.
