I have seen some recommendations to have a 20 amp line dedicated to audio equipment. Reasoned given include having enough headroom of power supply and. It having equipment that?s may introduce noise in the same line. When I build my room I installed a dedicated 20 amp line for my room but the crazy electrician connected the air conditioning plug which I?m considering to move into a dedicated line for air conditioners.

In my case I have 4 power amps that all run during HT  Add to that the processor and 2 subwoofers. For stereo playback it?s one beefy power amp, preamp and dac. So with regards to the dedicate 20 amp line does that have enough juice to drive everything optimally or should one have a dedicated 20 amp line for the beefy  power amp or one is enough to run everything?
