The P 15 at about 80 pounds is a beast. Add it to mono blocks, it's just too much real estate inside the room. So I will revisit putting in a dedicated circuit.

@jumia The power regenerator is a form of power conditioning. In this case its the best one offered to high end audio. your last paragraph above has nothing to do with what the power regenerator does or offers. Dirty power can affect the sound of a lot of components. It can affect the noise floor and can mess with distortion. Cleaning up the AC power allows the power supplies in your equipment to work more efficiently and so produce less noise. This statement:
Is false. If the amp has a regulated power supply it might be able to deal with voltage swings (which can last far longer than the storage in an amplifier's power supply could ever deal with). Amps maintain storage to have an energy store from which to draw power for sure, but if the voltage has sagged on a hot day when everyone is running air conditioning the amp will suffer.
The reason is more than just high frequency hash! The 5th harmonic on the AC Line is one of the more pesky issues you can run into from a power supply point of view and a hash filter will do nothing to stop it. The PS Audio regenerators can block the 5th harmonic entirely - and are are one of the very few high end conditioners that can do so. The 5th harmonic (300Hz in the US) can cause power transformers to rattle and run warm; power rectifiers to become noisy and AC motors to possibly run backwards.

Atmaspere, Thanks for all your great comments Relating to power storage within an amp if you’re voltage coming out of the outlet remain stable, even on very hot days, then I think the only concern is spikes in Power needs to handle Sonic changes therefore it would seem the capacitors within a well designed lamp can more than handle Power needs. Therefore it would seem the needed power storage reserves of a power regenerator are unnecessary given a stable voltage supply. I have trouble typing so I dictate and some of the letters may be a little bit off above
