need help choosing line condtioner

I have three amplifiers that consume almost 2000 watts. My adcom ACE-515 is only rated at 750 watts and only has two outlets. I was considering buying another adcom but my Parasound HCA-1500A uses 1000 watts. My other amps are Rotel RB-991 (550 watts consumption) and Rotel RB-956AX (400 watts consumption). IS there a line conditioner that will not limit the power needed by these amps and still have enough outlets for 8 source componets, preamp, tv, etc? Will it have sequenced power up? And here is the kicker...my college budget will only allow me to spend $500. What should I do? Thanks.

Jena labs has there new line conditioner available now, but no pricing on there web site yet. I have yet to see anything from Jena that is less then excellent.

If you have a budget and want better sound, do dedicated outlets-you will get far better results doing this then any conditioner. The only one that I care for is the Shunyata Hydra (which is a little over budget) and it can have a very negative effect on the PRaT of your system-so in home demo is a required. But if I were you I would do dedicated outlets first, and then think about a conditioner.
