THE WALL---Why?

No, this does not refer to Pink Floyd or Donald Trump! 
  I was just wondering why audio dealers tell you to plug the power amplifier into the wall, rather than into my PS Audio power plant? What harm would it do to plug it into the Power Plant; it has plenty of capacity?! Would I risk any damage if I plugged my power amplifier direct into the power plant? 
just curious... thanks.   ---Steve

Then what are they meant to do?

Safety more than improving sound indeed.

I find that my PS Audio P-10 regenerator improves the sound and cleans up the incoming power to great extent. Very noticeable  sound improvement until I plugged in my Atma-Sphere Novacron amps. They were to much for the P-10 so they had to go to the dedicated 10ga outlets installed for my equipment.

 i suggest a 30 ft extension cord from lowes that is normaly used for electric leaf blowers. it really adds air to the experience and the orange looks great coiled behind your tv stand. plus you can plug in the x mass lights with the extra receptacle
