@The Computer Audiophile - I have my audio system powered by an isolation transformer. But I'm glad it's not located in my listening room because it hums like a mf-er. I'm late coming back to the thread so my apologies if this has been answered previously: Have you measured the acoustic noise coming from these at, say, a meter's distance (or the room level measured at that distance when they're on vs. when they're off)?

@One and a half What if your service panel is located in listening room area with regard to something like a Topaz?  Can they be put outside?  Although we have some brutal winters

 

I have thought about adding a couple dedicated lines, but dread the thought of having rip all the sheet rock up etc..  From my understanding the power quality in my area is very good and conditioners et al would be a waste of $

 

The power quality in your *area* is nearly always very good by state regulation. The quality in your *home* is affected by many things in your home, from refrigerators to small appliances to lighting to everything (right down to toasters) that has a microcontroller these days. Tearing up sheetrock and putting in a separate line from an isolation transformer isn't the only way to attack this, though it's an excellent one. I was dealing with new construction and went the route of the isolation transformer, so unfortunately I haven't done research on alternatives.
