My advice is to run a minimum of two dedicated circuits to your rack location, and possibly a third one to where a powered sub may sit. The circuits should be 20 amps each, minimum 12 gauge wire, with seperate hot, neutral and ground for each circuit. If the circuit runs exceed 50 feet from the panel I would go to 10 gauge wire to keep voltage drop to a minimum. Keep the dedicated circuits, each dedicated circuit breaker, on the same phase in your panel. Use 20 amp PS Audio Soloist Premier outlets. Install surge protection on your house panel if it has not already been done.
Just curious as to what problems would be noticed if all three dedicated circuits weren't on the same leg or same phase in the panel?
