Interesting experience.

I was once doing repairs on a monoblock amplifer although I had both sides.Plugging them into a power strip revealed that, although on the bench they tested out just fine, there was a significant disparity in relative volume. Drove me nuts, but then I noticed that the monoblocks in the power strip were plugged into opposite ends. Placing them in adjacent plugs cured the issue.

Also the advice about segregating the digital from the analog is good advice. I prefer to add some filtering between the analog and digital ( including such things as TT motors) devices. MIT made a separate power strip with an isolation transformer to do exactly that.
