Cryongenically treated in-wall AC power wire


I have a high end sound system and am building a new house.  I would like to have a dedicated electrical line installed for my system, to run from the electrical outlets in my music room to the breaker box.  The builder asked me how long I wanted the wire to be, which runs from the outlets to the breaker box.  I have no idea.  I could place it as close as several feet or much longer.  The wire is $20/foot.  So, here are my questions:

1.  If you want to install a dedicated electrical line for your sound system how close should the electrical outlets be to the breaker box, or does it make a difference?  In other words, is there a minimum length of cryogenically treated wire that I will want in the wall stretching from the outlets to the fuse box?

2.  I assume that using cryogenically treated wire and electrical outlets will reduce noise.  Does anyone have any experience with cryogenically treated wire?

"Consider a minimum of three separate dedicated lines.  A separate line for digital sources, one for analog / low power equipment, and one for high power equipment or even a separate dedicated line for each mono block power amplifier if you have high power or Class A mono blocks."

I did this and I'm satisfied with the results, although I run it with mono amps each on their own circuit and the remaining gear on the third circuit. I also used 10 gauge wire in electrical conduit. I recommend this too.
It has been said many times, and disputed as wrong many times, that with dedicated circuits for each monoblock and upgraded outlets you should not need a power conditioner for monoblocks. I agree with kalali that issue could be a separate thread. In my experience, my  particular amps sound really good plugged directly into the dedicated circuit with the upgraded wall outlet. BTW the same amps also sounds much better IMO plugged into my power conditioner that is plugged into a dedicated circuit. YMMV
