Thanks for all the great info guys. I checked out
the above mentioned Niles power blocks on their home
page. These are quality products.
I ordered the current sensing power strip from
Cyberguys.com (Model #1120125). The total came
to $32.82 ($23.99 + $8.83 S&H).
This is indeed the cheapest solution. The SmartHome
catalog came in the mail today. I will try out their
#4040 IR X10 Command Console ($29.95) and a couple
of standard X10 Appliance Modules (#2002) at $12.99 each. They are rated for 15A and should be able to
handle the power amps.
The SmartHome Catalog opened my eyes to a whole
new world of home automation. I am amazed to find
the sophisticated PC programs that can be used
to control and customize anything you want!
Tapas.

As a follow up, Cyberguys shipped me the current
sensing power strip today. I hooked up the pre-amp
to the main outlet and the power amp to one of the
switched outlets and my problem was solved in an
instant.
Thanks to Mike Bond for offering this simple and
economical solution.
The 115 page catalog from Cyberguys is choke full
of interesting stuff. I especially like their
USB docking station for laptops. The most functional
port replicator with 10/100 LAN connection at $149,
that I have ever seen.
