You should first determine how many dedicated lines you have available for your system prior to considering distribution. If you have a second, separate line (dedicated circuit breaker) you should separate the amplifier from the rest of the electronics on that line. Amplifiers and low-current, noise sensitive electronics -- always-- benefit from being isolated from one another, even more than isolating analog from digital.
If you do not yet have separate AC lines you should strongly consider adding a second line for amplification prior to adding distribution. Putting in a dedicated circuit/s for amps will usually be a relatively inexpensive but extremely worthwhile upgrade. Make sure the AC wire from each dedicated outlet running to the AC panel is exactly equal in distance to the others so you do not introduce ground-loop hum.
Once that is settled, you should first compare and choose distribution for your line and source electronics. Keeping the amp on its own AC line, try it with/without its own distribution to determine which works best. In most cases, the difference will be obvious whether for better or not straight away.
