Running a new line...

I currently have all of this gear on 1 dedicated circuit from the rest of the house but have added over the last couple of years and thinking best to put some more circuits in - geez I wish I did this the first time!!

Would there be any issues keeping the router, TV etc on the same circuit as the other audio equipment like pre amp, streamer, clock, DAC and sub woofer?

Also we run 3 phase power - is it ok to run all 3 circuits on the same phase or better to seperate over different phases?

I’m obviously working with an electrician who is a mate of mine but he suggested asking the ‘audio gurus’ from an audio quality perspective and what people have experienced.

If you could share any relevant experiences it would be appreciated!

Thanks guys...

I won't make recommendations on the technical part of your question, but if you're running 3 lines, why not run 1 or 2 more? You have a lot of devices planned for that last line. There's some gear in that list that I wouldn't mix on the same circuit as my audio gear - the router, tv, blu-ray, maybe even the sub.
