Replacing generic RECEPTACLES

How important is it to replace your generic receptacles with audio grade receptacles . I already replaced my stock power cords to high end Shunyatas. Would it still be necessary to still change my generic receptacles to audio grade?

Running both lines to the ground bar in the panel means that they will share the same ground, less chance of a ground-loop.
This is required by NEC in the US. All grounds must be connected to the ground bus at the service panel.

The Pangea receptacles I recently had installed seem to work well.

If you have 12ga wire and a 20A breaker, just change the receptacle. 

If you have 12ga wire and 15A breaker, change the breaker and receptacle.
