[QUOTE="croak, post: 46827, member: 361"] Uriah Thank you very much. The fuse is indeed a 16A unit. I would not want to go lower as I think it would sound worse. The earth spike is a plated type of about 80cm and I doubt it would pass the "required impedance spec". If I understand correctly, if I get a professional dedicated earth with the required low impedance etc I can then hook my dedicated fuse directly to the incoming power before EL relay and main breaker or only before the EL relay? That would be excellent. Uriah, from what I have heard in my set up, if you have the skills, go for it, it is a really worthwhile upgrade for less then a decent interconnect cable? Use a fuse rather then a breaker. (A friend has the dedicated earth installed and has separated the HiFi feed from the EL relay and this too was an audible improvement over connecting to the EL realy. This friends installation was done by a qualified / certified electrician.) [/QUOTE]
