Hi Scott; As you propose, putting in the dedicated outlets is the best thing you can do to clean up your power supply. No other household appliances, eg refrig., lights, TV, heat, etc. will be on the dedicated line, and you should have a dramatically lowered noise floor that will be noticeable in your music.
I put in a cryo'ed breaker ($40.), from Virtual Dynamics, in my main breaker panel, but I can't say whether it made much difference or not as I made other changes at the same time.
If interested, Virtual Dynamics sells all sorts of cryo'ed AC products including wire-- VD also puts the wire on a Cable Cooker for awhile. I ran their 10/4 awg BX wire ($3.50/ft.) from my main breaker box to a sub-main, and found it to be a big improvement over an old Zaner 6/3 awg that it replaced. I can't actually say whether it was the new wire, cryo treatment, or cable cooking that caused the improvement as they come as a "package".
I'm in the process of phase 2 of upgrading my ded. AC system to include: cryo'ed wire to outlets, cryo'ed breakers, and cryo'ed Hubbell 5362 outlets. If you order a cryo'ed breaker, you have to specify your breaker box brand. It's my sense that the cryo treatment of AC products is pretty beneficial to music quality/character based on comparison(s) with different non-cryo'ed wires in the past. Do a search under "cryo" fro a lot more info. Good Luck, and Cheers. Craig
