Replacing generic RECEPTACLES

My point is: If you already have a 15A service with receptacles where you need them and there is not already  a host of other devices plugged into that circuit - that circuit would be most adequate for your cdp and possible other devices. I can understand upgrading the receptacles and to a point, power cords, but installing a new 20A circuit for a CDP or even a CDP and one or two other components, is nonsensical....my professional opinion...Jim

I should make clear on my previous statement - that is if your home is relatively modern with a good electrical system, or is an older home with a professionally upgraded electrical system. I can see the value in having a dedicated 20A circuit for your high draw power amps and large powered subs, however....Jim

@audiosens The wall plate is a tweak I've always thought was just an appearance thing. 

jhills.... So you are saying that a CDP does not need to be on a dedicated circuit ? And that just changing the receptacle to an audio grade is good enough? 

I always thought and heard that a CDP and all digital components would be better off on a dedicated circuit..
