Which amp for my new Volti Razz
That’s why I’m thinking that the Quicksilver Horn Mono’s with their noted input sensitivity would be a good match. (or am I off base). No your not off base. The Quicksilver horn mono’s have lower gain then most amps, the McIntosh MC 240 has ad... 
Fremer's Single-leg panel is absolute tweak bs
I I'm not an electrical engineer or electrician just a audio guy trying to get better sound. This is my take! Save money by dumping the step down transformer as it adds more noise. In the USA residential single phase split 120/240 Volts, 240 Volt...

@johnah5 Wrote: I was done with Fremer when during the breaking news about MoFi he kept saying the guy who asked the question that broke the scandal wasn't a "journalist" so he dismissed it.  He has zero credibility I agree! Mike

How does a speaker blow out?
@mikedc, What speakers do you have? Mike  
Do I need 10 gauge power cord if I have 10 gauge from panel?
@alerrico Wrote: For the huge 30 AMP monster AMP I would run dedicated circuit with double breaker. It already has a 30 AMP NEMA plug to prevent plugging into a standard 110 outlet. FWIW: I run the Crown studio Reference 1 Amp on a 240 Volt 20... 
Dedicated power circuits
@gphill Wrote:  Any special wire from the breaker box to the outlets?  For dedicated audio lines I would go with Type MC Galvanized Steel Metal Clad Cable 10 AWG. It has better EMI and EF shielding versus aluminum armor. FWIW, I have four dedi... 
Upgrade to McIntosh
@jumia Wrote: Mc 611 monos work very well with a tube preamp.  Monos a lot better due two separate power supply and more power. I agree. I will also add that monoblock amps have better left and right channel separation and the ability to keep ...
