I have a pair of class A mono blocks, I ran one 12/2 conductor twenty amp circuit to a Cardas 4181 receptacle. From the wall the power cord goes to the power conditioner, then all my gear plugs into the PC. Running full load with some volume, I am pulling 9 amps of current . Not sure what your gear is? #12 is adequate for most systems. But run cable for where you will end up.
