I im2bz2p Audiophyte Jul 27, 2004 2 0 0 Jul 27, 2004 #1 I'm looking for advice on the type of cable to use for dedicated power lines from the breaker box to the outlets where my AV gear will be connected. I will be running two 25 ft runs from 20 amp breakers to high quality outlets (PS Audio). The two runs will be going to two different areas in the house. I know I could use some 10 ga romex, but is there anything else that might offer some EMI/RFI rejection or other benefit? Whatever I use should meet the CL-4 specs for home wiring. Thanks for any advice you can provide.

You are better off getting a quality power conditioner like a furman or Tripp-lite, then running some "specal" power run.
