Looks like it worked out very nicely. My home isn't as old, but I had experienced dimming of the lights at an older home when I was much younger and I used to blast my old Yamaha M85 285 W/C amp. The tweak that I'm considering is getting a good power cord along with a new receptacle for my amp to see how much that helps. I can't tell what type of outlets you're using in the pictures, but there's a lot of talk about significant improvements by replacing them with Cryo treated ones from Hubble, Furutech, Oyaide, and PS Audio.
