Description

I realize that we all have our opinions and preferences. So, I am just adding my present arrangement to the discussion.

After many years of trial and error and upgrading 50+ years:

  1. I ran 3 10 gauge runs to my breaker box. At the end of these runs, I have 2 each Furutech NCF outlets.
  2. One dedicated line is reserved for my Video, one for my subs (4) and one for my Main system.
  3. On the Main system I have a AQ Niagara 7000 plugged into the wall with a AQ Dragon power cord.
  4. Into the AQ 7000 I have my 2 (Large) 1500 wpc mono blocks plugged into the Hi-Current outlets connected via Dragon power cords.

I have tried the amps directly into the wall and I prefer them plugged into the HI-Current outs on the AudioQuest Niagara 7000.

Congrats on the new amps Ozzy was just reading your review and came to check them out. The system is looking great and those Clarisys speakers look fantastically well built for planars.

@ozzy I just saw your Atma's for sale and was shocked! Actually I wasn't shocked at all as I dubbed you the tinkerer :p. So what's the next move?
