New Electrical Circuit

I have an older house with open circuits so I am wiring a new dedicated circuit for my audio gear.  Before I do so, would it be very advantageous to bump up the quality of the outlet and / or wiring to improve quality or is this overkill? Has anyone done this in the past and what would you recommend?

@fuzztone 14 is thinner than 12. I think you meant 10. 
 

FWIW I have two 20a dedicated circuits with 12awg romex. 
I like to isolate digital from analog

Wow mind blown. Thanks guys. I had to do this out of necessity but excited for the unintended upgrade.

This will be a significant upgrade for you. If you don’t like the price on the audiophile outlets, Hubbell 5362’s are very good.
