I didn't really think I needed one before, but...
My new NAD that replaced my Denon AVR has a much more sophisticated DSP section, and seems to be more succeptible to noise. If it's running in surround mode, and the wife starts the dryer, or the water pump kicks on, or any big appliance starts, I get a pop through my speakers. It's enough to make me worry about damage.
So what I'm looking for is something in the $150-$300 range. The Panamax 5100 is currently in the front running, because a buddy of mine has one and likes it. My local audio dealer carries Monster, but I'm leary of anything Monster because of their "all marketing very little engineering" philosophy.
Anyone else have any suggestions of what I should look at?
