When using a power conditioner, why is it advised to run amps directly to the wall?


I have seen it recommended that power for amplifiers should be run directly from the wall outlet vs through the power conditioner. Why?  
I have a 5.1 HT setup with all McIntosh electronics including three monoblocks and one stereo amp. I have everything running power from the MOC1500 Power Control Center. 
Look forward to learning.

" I have had literally everything in my rack plugged into the Mac power center for nearly 16 years plus I just added a big powered sub a few weeks ago. It sounds great and I have had no problems at all."

That says it all. Your ears/practical self rule. Now you're brain washed with yes/no/maybe...

Get out now while you can-with your wallet intact!

"I am sold on the idea of installing dedicated power runs to the system after the many mentions and recommendations for that."

Maybe the #1 thing to optimize what you already have. Don't forget to finish it off with fancy audiophool approved outlets too. You may not even hear a difference/improvement. 

If not, confirmation to just enjoy your setup.
