Electrical gurus please help....

I have a B&K AVR 307 and Revel speakers, Velodyne HGS15 sub, Sony 9000ES, and a Pioneer Elite cd recorder. I have recently added two dedicated lines for my system. One is for the tv, and the other for my equipment. My question is twofold.......First should I just use a high grade outlets like a hospital grade outlet? Or are industrial grade outlets just fine? Secondly.....Is my equipment at the level where I would want something like a Richard Gray or PSAudio power strip? If not what would you recommend?

Thank you for your input!!!

I can second Craig's experience with all power conditioners I've tried (loss of dynamics, was my complaint) -- bar one: a new Accuphase (sorry, don't remember model #).

Dedicated lines, on the other hand, have been a relatively cheap and exceptionally performant solution: transported my system to another level!
Good luck!

I agree with Garfish and Gregm. Tice, PS Audio Power plants, MIT Stabilizer, all these devices add a coloration or compress dynamics. The only one i found that does the job that it claims is the Sound Application conditioner. At almost 5 grand, not quite a bargin. I would try some of the better PCs, Shunyata, FIM, or whale etc. I think you might get more for your money sonically speaking.
