I use a similar Wiremold on my HiFi rig. They are transparent and do not colour the sound. Heavy duty construction and contain no filtering, so will not clean the power at a gig.
Power strip question
Ok, so this may seem off the wall. I am a professional guitar player and my best friend and roommate is a hardcore audiophile. Long story short I used one of his power cords to plug my Marshall into the power and noticed an immediate change in the sound of the amp. To my somewhat horror I realized that I am going to have to do a serious upgrade in power cords, patch cord connectors, etc which I've done largely by using Mogami cords for my effects and guitar which are a substantial upgrade that will do for now. I purchased my roommates used power cords when he upgraded his for his sound system.
I need to get a power strip or multi-plug station that plugs into a traditional electrical outlet. While gigging I have to use what electrical is available. Since I am an extreme neophyte I don't even know where to begin so any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!

@hilde45 and @uberwaltz, thanks very much for the nice words. However as stated in his latest post @bukirob is looking for a power strip providing noise filtering and surge protection. The Wiremold strip linked to in hilde45’s post, which I had suggested for a different application in a previous thread, does not provide either function. It is simply an outlet multiplier.

This comes up so often that I wrote a blog post and put my thoughts here: https://inatinear.blogspot.com/2019/04/power-management-for-frugal-audiophiles.html Best, E |
