Strike,

Minimum wire size #10awg. Breaker size 30 amp.

and replace with,

The branch circuit breaker size determines the size of the branch circuit.

If the branch circuit breaker is 30 amp then the minimum wire size must be #10 AWG. It can be bigger but it cannot not smaller.
The receptacle must be a NEMA 125V 30 amp rated receptacle. It cannot be bigger, it cannot be smaller, it can only be a NEMA 30 amp rated receptacle.

Jea48- Save the bandwidth. He's not listening. Or he can't read. Or he believes that the building and electrical code writing authorities are conspiring w Bose to make us listen to inferior sound ;-)

Jim (Jea48), it seems that John (Jmcgrogan2) was right. Fool Hardy has no interest in learning to sing and you are getting frustrated trying to make it happen. I remember you trying to tell him the same thing in another thread a while back. Hopefully, others reading this thread will follow your advice, which as usual, is excellent. It would be a shame for anyone to burn their house down for the sake of trying to make their system sound better. One of the things I remember from the other thread is that after all of those "upgrades", he was still tripping breakers and wasn't sure why. YIKES!

Hi Jim, sorry, I just got back to this thread, yes, I have been listening, I do have a 10/3 romex connected to a furutech GTX-D Rhodium for my amp, yes, The Krell 700cx amp comes with a captive power cord that says 600 volts rating on it, Jim, I have said over and over, my amp is NOT useing all 30 amps, it simply spikes over 20 amps, all I am saying Jim-Jea48, My krell 700cx runs cooler, more dynamic, bigger sound stage, more or less, effortless useing a 30 amp single pole breaker versus a single pole 20 amp breaker, I was shocked after 20hrs of burn-in of the breaker at the difference this made, Damn Jim, this is the best cheap tweak ever I have done, more than cost effective, I do not know why or how Jim, But I assure you, the 20 amp breaker in my opinon, was chocking my amp!, Thankyou jim for all the post you have done, I really don't have an explaination, I am just telling you that this works, no problems, and was worth doing, and that I know many members of audiogon that did the same here with their Krell amps, I was afraid to do it Jim, Chris Vanhas of vh-audio sold me the furutech GTX-D R with the understanding that it would not heat up or damge the outlet with a 30 amp breaker because of how well it is built, as it turns out, he was correct, not even warm!, I have checked this outlet over and over, the wires going to it, if any smell was coming from it, for heat, nothing, the wpo-wall power outlet is cold all the time with NO issues, thanks jim.

Jea48, one of these audiogon members that has e-mailed me for months about the 30 amp breaker is MRvordo, you can consult with him, maybe bring him to this thread, he uses the 30 amp breaker on his krell 750mcx mono amps, I believe a 30 amp breaker for each?, any way, every aspect of what he said this will do for my amp was spot on correct, he is one among many others that have done this with no issues.
