The Odyssey Extreme SE Mono blocks are on their own dedicated 20 amp line and seem quite content that way.
The reason for the X-2 capacitor and 120 ohm resistor, to come full circle, is that I have a Furutech GTX-D Rhodium that will be going into the system and the caps and resist. will be added to that. A third dedicated 20 amp line to feed the GTX-D and one of the front end components will be on that 3rd line, separating the digital from the analog. Which one gets the GTX-D remains to be heard. I plan on hard-wiring the transformer in and removing one of the two Oyaide R-0's, the second one is currently powering the aforementioned mono-blocks. I also have some experimenting to do with the transformer. The Topaz is constructed using the transformer itself, as the center with two mirror-imaged front and back half attachments and 3 bolts running thru the thirds to connect all three parts. Those front and rear housings are hollow cast aluminum and the strong fields contained their-in/or not, may or may not effect the AC line feeding the transformer on the supply side and those same stray fields my also effect the AC outlet supplying the component(s) attached, contained or not, on the 120 volt outlet side. What to do inside the hollow part of the housings is where the experimentation lies. I've got several differing materials that I can create shields from and the experiment(s) should prove educational. Thanks again.
