You should quit while you're ahead....OR are you.....

I think Dave's been battling a medical condition in his hands for quite some time. I seemed to vaguely remember him mentioning something like that.

You're right Larry, none of them are even remotely considered young anymore. Most are approaching 80, lets face it most burned the candle at both ends and are very lucky to have made it this far.

Re: Can you have two many Adcom Amps voltage drop

Voltage in my house rarely drops below 120V except for quick spikes when my AC unit kicks on. I have a Ting monitor recording voltage 24/7. This was a day that had a relatively loud listening session after 8pm.

Re: Can you have two many Adcom Amps voltage drop

As stated before, there really is no substitute for higher amperage circuits for amplifiers. Your current (pun) setup is causing significant “voltage drop”, or “V-drop” from the over taxed circuit. When this happens, your gear will “attempt” to compensate by drawing more amperage, and thus creating more heat. Further, the individual components within the amplifiers take a beating from the V-drop.

I run a pair of Carver Silver 9t amplifiers in my 2ch system. To feed them, I ran a 20 amp circuit with 10ga wire. The amps are the only thing on that circuit…

In my home theater I’m running 2x Carver M500t amplifiers, a Sunfire 200x5, and a Parasound Z-12. For this I ran 3x 20 amp circuits with 12ga wire, just for the amplifiers.
