I got the PF60 before the price jump and couldn't be happier. No UPS capability, no super noticible PQ or Audio change...it is more for protection and convenience. It has a lot of set up options with outlet switching and delays. Just a nice piece of equipment for the price...and if it saves my stuff at some point in time...well then it is worth more than the price of admission.
You have to add it to the shopping cart to see it, but Provantage has matched the Amazon price for the PF30. I just purchased one!
Definitely thanks for bumping the thread; I was researching a better surge protector for new HDTV, DVD player and HDDVR unit. This save me over $100 on the Monster product I was considering!
Belkin has been in the computer industry for years, so I don't think reliability will be much of an issue.
Had to update this. I literally had just placed my order with Provantage when I posted this Thursday. Friday morning I'm checking the website since they shipped (standard) from a regional warehouse and didn't have a tracking number yet when the doorbell rings. My wife calls out, " Did you order something? There's a big box on the porch..."
Thirty miuntes later I have the PF30 in place and configured with a huge grin on my face. Its a perfect match size and shade with my Cambridge Audio DVD player and looks great on the shelf. Can't wait to replace my old Monster unit for the audio components with another Belkin.
Kudos to Provantage for standard shipping in less than 24 hours !!!
I snagged the PF60 for $178.93 delivered from Provantage back in the 2nd week of July. Couldn't be happier with it. I got it more for the piece of mind from a protection stand point.
