How can I protect ML 436 monoblocks amplifiers?

I need advice. I live in Portugal, and I have 2 ML 436.

In this year I have problems, with both, and go to reparation. Expensive reparation.

I found that my voltage in home was elevated, normaly 246, 247V, and maybe this problems occur because of that, and high tension, in breve moments, high peak currents, . The ML 436 are configurated to 230V.

I intend to protect the amplifiers and the others components like the ML 380S pre-amplifier, record player and cd player.

Until now my problems was with the ML 436 amps and a Electrocompaniet power amplifier and a Sony Vaio labtop.

What kind of gear I could use, to prevent this high high peak currents?

I am sorry, I don't have any advice but did not want to ignore your request for information. Anyone here has any ideas? Perhaps you can contact PS audio directly.

Many manufacturers do not recommend using power regenerators on power amps. This is a question for a ML dealer or contact ML directly.
Also, using a power conditioner/regenerator on a power amp might possibly change the sonic characteristics of the amp.

My advice is to research high quality passive surge protection for the amps. Also, it sounds like you need the power company to check the line voltage coming into your home.
