How do I power up my monoblocks?

I have Kharma 2.1's, Lamm M1.1's, and an Operah Cd player running direct into the amps. I am installing dedicated lines and do not have a power conditioner as of yet. I am considering a preamp, but definatey want volume control. What is the best way to turn the system on? I want to plug the amps into the dedicated lines but find it tedious to turn each amp on from behind. Should I get a power conditioner with a power swithc - If I do does that negate the instalation of dedicated lines? Any way, it may sound like a stupid question but would appreciate advice.

Thanks

Lou
