| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? Power cords are (mostly) three runs of stranded copper wire with PVC insulation, twisted together (sometimes with filler material for damping), and encased in a PVC jacket. The main variables that affect power transmission are the wire gauge, shi... | |
| AC Power I think I would plug it into the analog. My reasoning is based on the linear power supply in the AVR. You can always try it both ways. Listen for differences. Marantz SR7015 Look at the photo of the power transformer inside of the AVR. Power tr... | |
| AC Power @signaforce , I sent you a PM through the Agon message system. | |
| AC Power @erik_squires said: Generally speaking, @jea48 is right about not mixing breakers. Technically speaking, if you are mixing breaker brands the breaker has to be "listed" as being tested with the other maker’s panel. I believe this has to do wit... | |
| AC Power @signaforce Said: OK, my decision has been made. I am sold on the AR features. I will purchase the Furman P 2400 AR vs the 1800 for the following reasons: . 4. The captive (why captive?) PC is 12GA vs 14GA for the 1800 Problem... The Furma... | |
| AC Power @mswale said: One question I do have abut dedicated circuits, is it worth the extra money to get magnetic breakers over the cheap other ones? I assume you mean the circuit breakers in an electrical panel. The breakers in the electrical panel a... | |
| AC Power @mitch2 said: Speaking of voltage regulation, any difference between this and this, other than $1,400? It seems 15A should mostly be enough for digital front end, if not all front end components. Probably fine. Loads are constant therein not f... | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? The cables shown in the pics carry DC power, but how is DC vs AC apples to oranges as far as the quality of the cables is concerned? The rectified DC is filtered through electrolytic caps to smooth out the full wave DC ripples and then in many ... | |
| AC Power @mitch2 There is a very good chance that digital front end equipment already has voltage regulators on the DC power side of the equipment. Good chance that holds true on at least solid state preamps. Maybe even for tube preamps. As for digital ... | |
| Does this make sense The only TT’s that have P mount headshells are for DJ and commercial applications. That’s not true. I have two vintage direct drive TTs that have P mount head shells. A Marantz 6300 and a Sony PS X55. The Marantz has an S shape arm. The Sony h... | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? @oberoniaomnia, aren't both cables in the photos above DC power from the power supply to the receiving equipment. Wouldn't that be comparing apples to oranges. . | |
| AC Power @gdnrbob , thanks for the kind words. . | |
| AC Power So I guess that this means that the 240A breaker for my drier is using both legs? Correct. Hot L1 leg to Hot L2 leg measures 240V, nominal. L1 to neutral as well as L2 to neutral measures 120V, nominal. And also: the way you explained that ... | |
| AC Power @signaforce said: Of a potentially more problematic nature, the Bonus Room leg on the fuse box includes 2 furnaces, 2 AC’s, 2 refrigerators. Looks like I need dedicated lines wired to the other leg. Sounds like you might be thinking all the ... |
