hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ?


What is the difference ? Is it really worth ten times the price to get hospital grade receptacles ? Why ?
Is one brand really superior to another? Is Pass &
Seymore a good brand ? Hubble better ?
I am setting up a closet to house my mid-fi gear and
will be running two dedicated 20A. lines to run the
2-channel audio and the home entertainment equipment. I
will have two double (2 duplex receptacles) on each 20A
circuit.
Thank you in advance.

Hmmm, no wonder why when I had my friend who is an electrician {but non audiophile} intalling lines in my audio room , I had a Wattgate , PS Audio, and a Tice outlet, he seemed {by the look on his face} most impressed with the Tice , which is orange.
Has anyone ever actually listened to a high end system in a hospital ? Those long marble halls must have great accoustics. In fact next time Im in a hospital, Im gonna rip me off an outlet !
