    Furman does the same thing on their 15A IT reference. In fact, I think it has the same number of outlets.

    Huge difference between filtering power vs a sine wave generating piece of equipment……..

    Now that’s a dedicated circuit!

    They also make 200a versions and higher for home builds.

    I have not tested the ohms since our last upgrade.
    I do not have any interior speaker shots. 😏

    Checked mine this morning, they both bounce between 2.4-2.6, but settle at 2.5 ohms.
    Wonder what kind of power my Aragon 8008bb sends their way🤔😉. At 4 ohms it is 400wpc.

    With the addition of some new cables, I have been slowly readjusting the subs back to the room and mains, enjoying the hell out of a plethora of music along the way.

    At this point, the Rythmik subs are barely even on anymore but I am very close to being back to that perfect balance. I'm just glad that I don't need to do the human pretzel to adjust them anymore. That helps tremendously.

    Getting a divorce most likely sooner rather than later.

    Sorry to hear that man. I went through the same at the end of 2021. I was lucky to keep my 2-ch system, but really, much of it has been replaced since then. I can only pray for you that it is not heavily contested. You'll just be feeding the lawyers if it is.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    Sorry to hear about this, Ryan. Divorces are usually system killers. If there is a silver lining though, no more WAF needed moving forward. You do what you want!

    Still bites though that you have to go through this. Maybe the folks here can collectively cobble you a system together after you get your own place.

    That pillow needs to go. Also, just one set of spikes? Where are the other three? Fetch me more servants! And quiet this one, his moaning is hosing the noise floor.

    Sorry indeed. It's coming up on 6 years since mine, hard to believe. Without knowing your circumstances, I can tell you this, the phrase "time heals all things" is a crappy saying and I hate it. Has this been said to you? Time is irrelevant to each individual. For all the "helpful" people that told me, "it takes a year before you can get over it" can shove it right up the 'ol tail pipe. Now, that being said, Tom is absolutely correct, not a single oz of WAF in my place, I can crap right on my living room floor and no one says $hit. My gear, my seats and the shirt on my back was what I got out of the D. It was my faith that brought me through it. Now you are at the center of my prayers.
