Audio recording studios need high-quality AC power for several reasons:

1. Equipment performance: High-quality power can help to ensure that the equipment, such as microphones, mixers, and amplifiers, is operating at its optimal level. This can help to improve the quality of the final recording.

2. Avoiding downtime: High-quality power can help to reduce downtime caused by equipment failure and repair. This can help to ensure that the studio is able to meet deadlines and maintain a good reputation.
