There are five amps I like to rotate and use when I record. My problem (which can't be fixed via different room) is a cramped room with amps up against the wall and rather difficult to get to turn on and off, not to mention the older Gibson and Magnatone tube amps that have controls on the back and bottom.
I found a power strip that has individual switches, which I thought I could plug my amps into, and just flip a switch when I want to use that particular amp. Any problems with having my amps turned on at their own switch and hitting the power at this switch?
Any other suggestions? _________________ Al

Al,
The only thing I would recommend is that you have a good power conditioner just ahead of your power strip to prevent any voltage spikes when you hit the switch for each amp. Other than that I see no problem with your setup.
