I'm looking for advice on the type of cable to use for dedicated power lines from the breaker box to the outlets where my AV gear will be connected. I will be running two 25 ft runs from 20 amp breakers to high quality outlets (PS Audio). The two runs will be going to two different areas in the house. I know I could use some 10 ga romex, but is there anything else that might offer some EMI/RFI rejection or other benefit? Whatever I use should meet the CL-4 specs for home wiring.

Thanks for any advice you can provide.

You don't need to use 10 Aug. Regular 12 aug will do it, and it is the right one for home power runs. You are better off getting a quality power conditioner like a furman or Tripp-lite, then running some "specal" power run.
