Dedicated circuit question

I will be having an electrician install a dedicated circuit for my listeneing room in a few weeks. This will be for two channel only. I have a pair of Bel Canto ref500m's, Aesthetix Calypso pre and an Ayre CX-7eMP as a source. Should I get two lines? One for the power amps and one for the pre and CDP? Or do I really need three to keep the digital source seperate? Help please!

I am thinking of using Maestro outlets. Zmanastronomy-The Bel Cantos are mono blocks so I need two outlets for power amps.
Thanks everyone for the advice

The best investment I made for my 2-channel rig. I use Furtech outlets. Lots of good ones out there.

Also have you electrician run 10/2 WG Romex. This is the largest guage romex that is solid and still fits in our receptacles. Your electrician will probably not be to happy as 10/2 WG is very stiff, but insist on it. You can use a 20 amp breakers for these runs and if you ever have any beast amps you can bump the breakers up to 30's. Also I always advise if you are going to run two dedicated circuits run three, if you were going to run three then make it four. You never know when you may have a sub or two and want the extra dedicated circuits.
