RE: to Stehno.

Thanks, Fantja.

However, I must offer a bit of a correction. A dedicated line does nothing to cleanse the noisy AC coming in from the street. A dedicated line from the service panel to the component simply ensures that AC noise coming in from the street is now dedicated to the component plugged into it.

Dedicated lines can reduce noisy AC generated within the house itself, e.g. appliances, dimmers, etc. but supposedly some noises such as bi-directional digital noise will make its way back to the service panel and then induce its noise into other circuits / lines.

All of which a superior line conditioner will or should minimize / resolve.

Thus leaving a dedicated line with only one real purpose, which is to ensure a high-current drawing amplifier has enough juice to sufficiently reproduce the more dynamic and/or complex music passages.

IOW, if one employed proper line conditioning and a low-current-drawing amp, there is no need for dedicated lines, or rather just have one dedicated line for everything.
