Dedicated 20 amp circuit - Electrician laughed!


I brought my electrician out to my house today to show him where I would like to install a dedicated 20a circuit for my system.  He laughed and said that's the stupidest thing he's heard and laughs when people talk about it.  It said, if you're going to do it, you have to have it separately grounded (shoving a new 8 foot rod into the ground) but even then, he sees no way there can be an audible improvement.

Now, he's not just an electrician though. He rebuilds tube amps on the side and tears apart amps and such all the time so he's quite well versed in audio electronics and how they operate.

He basically said anyone who thinks they hear a difference is fooling themselves.  

Personally, I'm still not sure, I'm no engineer, my room's not perfect, and I can't spend hours on end critical listening...  But, he does kinda pull me farther to the "snake oil" side and the "suggestive hearing" side (aka, you hear an improvement because you want to hear it).

I'm not taking a side here but I thought it was interesting how definitive he was that this not only WILL not make a difference but ALMOST CANNOT make a difference.

That was very likely as our old homes were converted as late as 1964.

Geofkaitt-again, stupid comment. "I had four built" is colloquial for owned older homes, not indicating I specifically constructed them or had them constructed for me. Why bother with the statement that is obviously untrue but commonly understood (that's rhetorical-does not require an answer).
I guess your electrician would have a field day with me. I put in 10 separate circuits for my system, everything has its own circuit. The amp for my mains is rated for 20 amps, so that one is 20, the rest are 15 amp. My house was wired with a 400 amp service, and the panel is only about 8 foot from my system, so wiring it was really no big deal.
jbecker61  two thumbs up. Great to hear actual experience versus thoughts and ideas from those who say power doesn't matter.
I use an Equitech 2Q and am pleased with it. However, I realize my overall power quality won't compete with yours. I think and understand cost prevents many from trying your solution; but I don't know why they knock things they obviously know absolutely nothing about. Enjoy your quiet background dynamics and nuance:) Pete
Is there a difference using 30 amp breakers instead of 20 or just overkill 
Does it matter either way
Thanks
