Power running to AVR/AMP

In my current setup I have a Monster power center that my AVR (Onkyo 807) and amp (Parasound 2125) plugged in to. It also has my at&t uverse STB and tv (Panasonic 65" vt25).

Without any voltage testing hardware, I was curious if I was choking off the AVR and/or the amp by having both plugged into the same piece (not feeding enough power to them to let them run).
If I am choking it of power, would moving the amp and/or AVR to a seperate outlet by itself help the cause?

Thanks in advance.

I seriously doubt you’re having a problem, seeing how the Parasound is a low-powered amp. Even if it were high powered, it would depend on how hard you drive your system. Moving it to another outlet wouldn’t necessarily help. You’d have to move it to another outlet on a different circuit to make a difference.

Have you noticed anything unusual with this power setup? ;)
As was posted, you have to run a lot of component and run then hard to have an effect on voltage sag which would be of short durations anyhow.

I knew the different circuit was the part that COULD change things (forgot to clarify that in the first statement). Just was unsure if it was likely to be holding it back or not.

I haven't noticed anything bad with it currently, but by the same token I wouldn't know it could be better until I heard it the other way :D Since I haven't messed much with circuitry/home electricity in these terms I figured I would ask those who have.
