There is no way that the Xbox could draw even a quarter of the energy needed to run one of those AC units. Definitely a wiring problem imho, first I'd isolate all the outlets et al that are connected to that one circuit. Maybe, if your electrician liked you, he labeled it all in the breaker box. I would then move the xbox and amp to a different circuit to see if the problem happens again. Then call the electrician, and buy a UPS for the computer and delicate electronics. We had a brownout cause over $15k in damages down on the cape. My computer survived, but the surge protector never worked again. Might want to check your homeowners ins just to see who would be liable if a problem were to arise.
