Installing dedicated lines. Have a question
I'm going to be installing dedicated lines for my system. I figured since I am running a new line, why not install two lines- one for the front end components and one for the amp? My question: If I run two lines, do I need to have them both on the same phase of the main panel or one from each?
Thanks in advance. |

Same phase. If you have lighting dimmers try to use the opposite phase that they are on.

Most definitely on the same phase, otherwise this will cause grounding issues, especially if your equipment is two wire.

Thanks! That was my impression. FWIW, I do not use any dimmers in my home..

Yikes! I have a home chock full of dimmers. Is this an issue I should address? What exactly should I tell the electrician?
For a bit more background--all of my components except my subwoofer are plugged into a QKore/QBase, then one cable into the wall. Please advise

I went with 3 lines -
a. power amplification b. analog/line components c. digital components from the same phase.
