Can too many components on one outlet affect the sound of an amp?


I am running a few amps, a receiver, tv and a few more components on the same outlet. I am using a power conditioner. My main issue is - I recently noticed that when I'm only running my McIntosh MC275, a pre-amp and a cd player, I seem to be getting better bass compared to having more components on. Is it just my imagination? Or is it possible? Everything is running on a 15 amp circuit.

I have my Pass amp into it's own outlet, my Pass pre into a different outlet, everything else into a power conditioner.  Sounds better to me
don't simply turn unused equipment off,  unplug it, especially home theater stuff...that was a recommendation from Charles Hansen of Ayre, and I find it to be very true in my system...
