| Dedicated Line(s), One Line or Two? I just built a custom house with a dedicated audio room and put in 3 dedicated 20 amp lines terminated right were I'm placing my gear. It is much cheaper to put more lines in when being built than to have to add them later. | |
| Will Changing my 100 Watt Tube Amp to a 200 Watt SS Amp Solve My Problem? 1 more thing.
