Power amps into surge protector/Conditioner or DIRECT to wall? Final verdict?
Just curious. I've heard for years not to plug amp into a surge protection evice. Does this apply to a preamp as well? Are the component fuses enough? Do affordable surge protection/conditioners exist that do not effect sound quality?
Some of the mid line Furman studio units look nice. Plus you have the SurgeX/Brick devices that look like real winners. However, I'm not wanting any sound quality issues. BUT, I don't want my equipment destroyed as well.
Thoughts please

I just ordered a Torus TOT MAX. Looks like i'll be good for a while, even if I purchase more powerful amps down the road https://www.toruspower.com/tot-series/ |
I'm using a Wattbox and to be honest I'm still getting some buzzing it maybe that my source line has some kind of feed back loop in it. I've tried so many different amps and RCA/XLR hook ups and all the same BS..lol. From what I have read surge protectors can help with surges but that all depends on how many components are in it. I know PS Audio has some wonderful power conditioners and surge boxes that are really good but they are priced well over my budget. |
It's possible that a very close lightning strike will get past anything: http://stormhighway.com/surge_protectors_ups_lightning_protection_myth.php |
