Solecky.......Which Torus Wall Mount power unit are you considering? How much power do you think your room will require? How many dedicated outlets do you plan to install? Do you want just isolation, noise suppression, and surge protection, or do you also want voltage regulation?
You cannot go wrong with a Torus Wall Mount power unit. It is a fine way to distribute clean power in your room. You will need to make some decisions based on the questions presented above.
I had the WM90AVRBAL TVSS installed about 3 years ago. Excellent product and I highly recommend it. I had been experiencing gremlins for quite a while and the Torus fixed everything. Something an endless parade of most power conditioners known to man couldn't do.

Frank, I remember your ordeal and what you and your electrician went thru during the installation. I hope that is all behind you now.
Glad to see you posting here. I look forward to your contributions.
Hi Everyone,
I currently have 15 amp outlets in my townhouse and an Audience AR6-TSSOX power conditioner (15 amp model).
I do not have a basement to house a large torroidal power unit. I do have a decent sized closet near my system. I also could make space on the bottom of my rack (is this too close to my audio components?).
I may be moving in less than two years, so I don't want to sink a ton of money into non-removable equipment from my townhouse.
I have the following components coming in:
Vandersteen M7-HPA Monoblocks - Each 20 amp cord and designed to be plugged into wall
ARC Reference 10 Preamp (Potentially) - One 20 amp cord
Existing components:
Esoteric K-01X - 15 amp cord
Vandersteen 7 MkII subwoofer monoblocks - Each 15 amp cord and designed to be plugged into wall
My dealer says I need two to three 20 amp outlets. I currently use two 15 amp outlets, one for the power conditioner (all components plugged in) and one for the subwoofer monoblocks.
I want surge protection against lightning and other power surges, and excellent power conditioning and isolation.
Can anyone help me to formulate a plan? I need to address this quickly. My head is spinning.
Best,
Ken
