Creating a system you love shouldn't be difficult. The Acoustic Frontiers blog is here to help.
Whole room power conditioning is a term we invented to refer to the use of a single conditioner to supply power to a number of dedicated electrical circuits feeding a single room. The length of the dedicated circuits should be kept as short as possible to maximize the ability of the connected system to draw current. The approach is particularly effective for large home theaters and high end audiophile systems.
Torus Power's Wall Mount (WM) isolation transformers and surge suppressors are designed specifically for this kind of installation. A lower cost alternative is SurgeX's PF-420.
Clint, an avid DIYer, planned on building his own home theater to cut costs until he realized the complexity of the task. "One piece of advice I came across most often was to hire a professional. I was hesitant, but I just found myself going in circles and didn't want to invest in something I'd later regret."
