If you really know what you're doing and the wiring is fine, it's not a particularly hard job, just potentially dangerous.
If you don't know what you're doing, this is NOT a DIY job for you! Too many things can go wrong that you won't recognize and/or won't know how to deal with. Look at the questions you're asking and ask yourself if you really know enough to take this risk.
Since you clearly don't know how to do this, I'd recommend strongly against your doing so on your own. Please, there's no issue of honor here if you have to get qualified help. There's a reason for that profession.
In fact, it is wisest to check with your landlord or building super to be sure you aren't going to really regret this later on.
From personal experience I can tell you that taming your electrical system is likely to do wonders for your sound. But it's unlikely that one outlet alone is a magic bullet; it takes a lot more than that cumulatively. As a confirmed cheapskate, I can assure you that you won't save a nickel if you have a disaster on your hands.
