 I have a 20A dedicated circuit for my audio gear. With the incoming MA1 amps I'm wondering if I need to add a 20A circuit (or 2)?

 Word from Ralph is a single 20A circuit more than enough. One less thing to worry about.

 That will give you a ballpark idea of the current draw; it will always be comfortably below the fuse rating, at idle. 20A could run a gaggle of MA1s. (Don't ask me how many amplifiers in a gaggle.)

 Each amp has a 5A main fuse.

Will need to noodle on the proper collective for amps.
