High Current Outlet for Amps?


I am told to plug the power amp straight to the outlet rather than the power conditioner. Since I am remodeling my home so  I am going to have electrician to install the outlet, one outlet per amp and each outlet has individual circuit breaker. Then he asks me if I want 20amp or 30amp since I told him high current.

what do I need? 20amp or 30amp circuit breaker? Thanks.

It depends on the class of amplifier, as randy-11 stated.  With typical class AB amp music power is very low, being only a few percent of peak power (unless you listen to sine waves).   It is because average 50% of loudness is only 10% of peak power, not to mention any gaps.  In spite of low average current demand it is drawn is short spikes of very high amplitude.  For that reason any impedance in series (many conditioners) cause voltage drops and reduction in dynamics.
thanks for all the info. I am just gonna have him install the 30amp and few extra outlet since I only have to pay for the parts only, which is less than $200 for additional 8 outlets and 8 dedicated circuit breakers - 30amps.

I will plug all my 6 amps directly into the outlet. For other components like Preamp, Processor, Turntable, Blu-ray and Music Server will be plugged into the PS Audio P10 Regerator.

Hope all work out well. Thanks
What’s the old saying, "measure twice, cut once". With 6 amps and the P10, it would be a good idea to add up all of the watts that will be drawing on that one circuit - especially @peak. Much will depend on the amps’ design: A, A/B, D, etc. The P10 alone delivers 1500 watts @peak. It’s unlikely that there is a 1:1 relationship of delivering 1500 peak watts / to drawing 1500 watts from the circuit. Capacitors change the correlation. But, there could be considerable benefit to installing two dedicated circuits while the work is being done. Earlier in this thread, dlcockrum nailed it with headroom and SQ. With my rig, I need to put my 1800w balanced power conditioner on a different circuit than my 200w Class A amp ( 350@idle - 1000 watts @peak). I can easily hear the loss of dynamics when everything is on the same circuit.
