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?

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.

Check NEC and local codes. How long is the branch circuit? Is the wire in conduit or confined space? 12ga might not be sufficient and even when it is, it's a minimum spec. You can reduce voltage drop, for example, by using 10ga wire.
