| amplifier power consumption To repeat Rog's response it should give the info on the back of the unit. Usually near the AC power inlet...As Al said make sure the UPS puts out a true sine wave. SCRs will give you at best a 12 step wave (12 pulse). Cheapo Battery Back Up UPS a ... | |

| Electrician's advice wanted: safely lifting ground Yes, it is two paths to ground when one amp has a connection from input to chassis ground and one does not. Because chassis ground is relative to the transformer ground on each amp, and the transformers don't tap at the exact same voltage, so ther... | |
| really? .89c ground lifters? Also, some equipment with three prong power cable actually have the ground lifted inside the chassis. I've owned several amps wired this way.04-25-10: AlbertporterIf the amps are UL and or CSA listed then that would imply the AC power wiring of th... | |

| Do better ingredients make a better Ground Wire? People..... my understanding of this thing is that the other end of the wire is not connected to earth ground.(AKA, the safety equipment grounding conductor.) It is not connected to anything.Example of, I believe.http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/c... | |
| really? .89c ground lifters? Actually, if something goes wrong with the equipment - like a B+ wire touching the chassis - you're better off sending that to ground and blowing a fuse, than letting it sit out there to electrocute your kids.04-23-10: AuxetophoneAuxetophone,If B+... | |
| really? .89c ground lifters? I wouldn't call that a ground loop. If there was something like that, it would cause the ground to be noisy. 04-23-10: AtmasphereCould it cause a ground loop hum?Why would it be any different than ground current flow from a CATV system? In both c... |
