Dedicated power

I'm looking to run a dedicated 30a and dedicated 20a line to my system directly from the fuse box. 
I currently have some florescent lights and some other junk on the line so I'm hoping it will be an improvement. Things sounds like they are straining somewhat when you crank things up. The amp will go on the 30a line and the digital stuff on the 20a. 
Anyone done this and saw improvements?

The lights are wired on a separate circuit, it was a 2800 watt sunfire subwoofer, playing telarc time warp. I’ve seen lights blink in too many different systems to believe it could just be dirty connections. It has to be voltage drop on the line.

Here is a Jon Risch post. It’s in regards to VD on a power cord but it could be used for branch circuit wiring as well.

Here is a post from Ralph (M) . Again the subject is for power cord VD.

All copper#2 wire. Thanks for the links jea48, the voltage drop could have been from the captive power cord.

I don't believe too many manufacturers make a 240 volt sub or amplifier in the us.
