New listening room electrical design


I'm moving to anew house in a few weeks, and trying to figure out the electrical design.
My current room was designed by Rives and I have numerous dedicated lines in it, so, I'm somewhat familiar with the topic.
The new system proposed outline:
New dedicated subpanel, exclusively for the audio components (main located in the garage, adjacent to the new room).
I have 2 speakers (Avantgarde) with powered subs
2 separate JL Fathom subs
2 mono block amps (lamm ML2)
and number of front end component, locate on stand, that going to be on the side wall
(Preamp, crossover, TT and CD player)
I'm thinking:
Two lines with 2 duplex receptacles each to power avant-garde and JL subs
Two lines with one duplex each for Lamm mono blocks
Here is my main question:
For the preamp, crossover, TT and digital I have the following options:
1.   One line with two duplexes for the analog stuff
       Another line for digital
       3 duplex recptacles on 2 separate lines
2. One line (or two) and one power distribution box with 3-4 duplex receptacle, connected to the wall receptacle
3. Two lines hardwired (no wall receptacle and no IEC and power cord in the Power distr. box) to power distribution box, separating analog from digital receptacles inside the box

What is a better approach for the front end components?
Multiple lines feeding one duplex each,
One line feeding multiple duplexes
One line feeding power distribution box?

The Synergistic Research Black outlet is a TR (tamper resistant) outlet. 
I do think it does a fabulous job of improving the system's sound.

I am sure your new listening room is going to sound fabulous. I hope you are planning to use A/C wall outlets that bring out the best sound in your system . I am currently very happy with the Synergistic Research Black outlets. I found these outlets to be quite good.

Did you ever get an opportunity to try the Entreq Grounding system? I have not tried that approach , but I have tried the Acoustic Revive RG-24 and the Synergistic Research Grounding Block. I do think the SR Grounding Block makes a significant improvement.

I look forward to your reports on how the new room sounds.

I know your new room is going to sound fabulous. I have used the Oyaide R1, SR Tesla Plex, PS Audio Premier, Furutech GTXD-Rhodium, and now the Synergistic Research Black outlets. The SR Tesla Plex outlets make perfect sense for the subwoofers. Once your system is up and running I do think it is worth the effort to compare your Furutech outlets to the SR Blacks. Especially since they are sold with a 30 day trial.

All the best for a satisfying system.

The new Synergistic Research Black outlets are stamped TR and one can see that TR mechanism in the outlet orifice.
The ST Tesla Plex outlets are in fact made by Levitron + modified by Synergistic Research.
The SR Black outlet has many sonic properties that I think make it worth auditioning in one's system. They are expensive and to me worth it. They are one of the few audio grade outlets sold with a 30 day return policy.
