Power amps into surge protector/Conditioner or DIRECT to wall? Final verdict?
Lowrider, I did quite s bit of research and for the money, the Torus TOT series gets great reviews worldwide. Plus, I got a great recommendation from a dealer so trust. The unit will arrive tomorrow. Besides looking forward to protection, I’m look... 
The new Schiit Aegir Amplifier now shipping
I’d be curious to hear comparisons of the Aegir to the highly rated PS Audio class D Stellar 300 ( or m700 monos).  
Anyone heard Schiit's Aegir?
Not to dismiss RR’s speaker system as I have not heard them in person, I believe I had a similar speaker type in the Polk RTI bookshelf’s. I had to slim down my system when we lived in a small condo many years ago.  The RTIs sounded wonderful mate...

so Lowrider, there is really no point in plugging amps into surge  protection powerstipes, etc since sonics are effected. Best bet is probably make sure equipment is well insured

So the component's fuse itself is enough general protection from electrical surges. 
Power amps into surge protector/Conditioner or DIRECT to wall? Final verdict?
Thanks for the responses. Maybe my real question: Is surge protection really needed if your components have a fuse? A "direct hit" would wipe out many surge protectors and zap your equipment anyway. So do you really need one if electrical noise is... 
Benchmark Preamps and Amp - For real?
I was looking at a ABH2. Instead I think I'm going to try Class D PS Audio Stellar M700 monos.  
A lot of hype about PS Audio, deservedly so ?
I've got a BHK Pre amp coming this week. Next month I'm probably going to order a pair of M700 amps. Maybe...just maybe a BHK 250 instead....we'll see 
Anyone ever compare the PS Audio Stellar amp (class D) to Benchmark ABH2 (class a/b)?
I just ordered a BHK Preamp and it will be here next week. Next month my plan is to order a pair of Stellar M700 monos.
