Dedicated Power line

I am going to be putting in a dedicated line for use with my stereo. I am thinking two 20A lines should do the the trick, as this will allow me to separate the digital from the analog. The electrician is comming on Saturday, so my question is are there any specific questions/requests I should make to him? Also, I know there are one or two "upgraded" outlets, but am not sure of which to use. Any reasonably priced suggestions? Thanks for the info Jim

Just thinking out loud, I have all my equipment on a fireplace hearth in my dedicated listening room. "See there is a use for the living room after the family room is built". Anyway my tubed pre-amp is right in the opening of the fireplace and all my cords are in the fireplace. I have no noise that is audible, even if the volumn is full up. I'm wondering if all the masonry is shielding me from some of the RFI. The fireplace sits between the equipment and the city of Minneapolis (about 15 miles away). Does anyone have any thought on this.

I'm using the CAT Ultimate and live in Wash., DC. The only place you won't get RFI is in the basement.
