RE: Unplug all unused equipment

Not ridiculous at all in my experience. I don't go to the lengths of unplugging components because I'm far too lazy, but I do make sure stuff that's not part of the system (but on the same electrical circuit) is unplugged or turned off. Found this out when I installed the Furutech outlet. Had the power shut off at the panel, and when I went to the garage to get a different screwdriver found the lights were out. Two compact fluorescent lights on the same circuit as the system. System sounds noticeably better when those lights are off. So check not only stuff that's plugged in, but turn off stuff you can't unplug like lights, and the ultimate horror -- dimmers.

Makes a pretty good case for a dedicated line...
