In my current setup the subwoofer amp (Crown DCI4|1250n) is in the basement. It is currently on a shelf, about 6' from the main electrical panel (all GFCI or arc fault breakers because they were required by code when we did a renovation; the 20A audio system circuit's breaker is in this main panel and not a sub-panel) and at a 90º angle to the panel. I've been thinking about adding a rolling rack unit to make adding equipment or changing configuration more ergonomic.
However, the only practical location for such a unit is about 36" from the electrical panel and parallel to it. Solid rolling rack-mount units (Middle Atlantic, etc.) are expensive, and generally non-returnable. Is there a high probability of noise or other interference from the panel, such that I should just deal with having to physically move components to access them?
