well i decided i'd better make this inquiry after 3 local pole transformers blew outside my apartment building in under 2 hours today causing explosions powerful enough to set off no less than 5 car alarms and scare the crap out of the firemen trying to put the flaming power pole out after the first blew(not to mention what it did to my power)
i'm thinking that i should invest in something to stablize and clean my power (not to mention protect from surges) that's slightly better than the 20 surge protector i got from target- which is entirely too cheap to realistically protect my audio gear
i also believe that that power in this place helped my old pioneer elite receiver to it's untimely demise and i'm quite interested in protecting it's still very new Marantz replacement which i've become completely enamored with
does anyone here have good suggestions to cleaners/filters or other protection devices? and are the monster/panamax/etc. line cleaners really worth it sonically or should i go with a more industrial surge suppressor?
i must ashamedly admit i do like some of the monster units, but more aesthetically than anything else but i'm guessing that anything that looks that good is a pretty pointless waste of money
ok, enough of the rambling, thanks in advance
