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?

@jhills. Thanks Jim.....So i guess i really dont have to add a dedicated 15A line for the CDP. I will just change the receptacle. 
@elizabeth ....My digital equipment is on the same 20A line...     Do you mean also that it is a dedicated 20A line? I understand that it is also hooked up to a seperate power conditioner. Also you suggested ferrite clamps , i dont they would be large enough to put on my Shunyata Sigma digital AC cord which is 8 awg. . And also that it is a digital ac cord anyway i really might not even need the ferrite clamp. 
@elizabeth .... Elizabeth how do you like the PS Audio P600 ? Do you have anything else hooked up to it besides a CDP? 
@tattooedtrackman,
No, u don't need to install a 20A line for a CDP. But since your 15A AC line is native to your house, I'll bet there are other wall outlets with devices or appliances tied into that circuit. IOW, it probably is a shared line with noise being introduced from the other devices.

 And since u now have a 20A Furutech duplex receptacle, it makes sense to run a new 12 gauge line with new breaker. As Elizabeth explained so well, your CDP doesn't care if the circuit is 15 or 20 amps, it only draws the amount of current needed. 
But, in the future if you add more components to your system, you may wish you had installed a 20 amp circuit.
