Starting the cabinet all at once. It works! And here's how...

I asked that same question once, and never got an answer.

I see .... and since there are only a select few who even choose to power their cab by this method instead of the SmartStrip .... chances are, nobody knows! :-\
Perhaps a 2amp might work, as does in a normal game. ???
Thanks anyway...

SirPeale:
Quite likely that would work. I wouldn't fuse the computer, but everything else should be. It's those components that I was concerned about fusing, that no one knew what rating fuse to use.
marcus.:
Ive only just seen this thread tonight and have to add to peales comment on grounding.
It is important that all of the cabs metal parts that have some sort of continuity into the inside if the cab (via screws/fixtures or wiring etc) are grounded. not ony for peales static reasons, but also for your safety.
If a live wire were to come off you monitor or PSU or wiring and touch an ungrouded control panel bolt(for instance), that CP would be live when you touch it...human fuse. Dont count on paint as a good insulator.
A general rule as peale says, IMO a necessay one.
General Zod:
Okay .... :-\
Here's my progess thus far, but I think I've run into a situation. My wiring is almost finished with the exception of one problem....(if in fact this is a problem) ;)
Wiring everything to the DistributionBlock as shown in the diagram , I am down to three simple connections ... but only two available on the block.
I'd like to save the IsolationTransformer for one connection, but that still leaves the marquee ( home depot special ), and my hacked speakers to connect.
Is it safe to wire those together and connect them to the last position on the PowerBlock? This is where I'm probably also going to need a fuse ... do ya think? :-\
Again .... thank you in advance for your help.
Michael
