Power Chords or Power Plants?

For the dollar spent and the return in sonic improvement, which way should a guy go? Power plants cost more, but will usually power several pieces of equipment. Several individual power chords may total to the same amount of money or more? I already have dedicated lines for my stereo room from the breaker panel. One line for amp, one line with several outlets for all the other gear.

Thanks!

I would recommend the power cords.Far too many power plant/conditioners affect the power drawn by the component.Any time you insert a device into the electrical delivery system,you will deal with capacitance and inductance.This will effect the ability of a system to draw necessary current/voltage from the wall outlet.Unless your local electric company is absolutely terrible,you will probably be "throwing the baby out with the bath water".Many cords and conditioner/plants are available with retun policies.Don't leave home auditioning without one.
This is only my opinion and you know what that is worth.
