Surge protector recommendations for two 5 channel amps

341 Views 6 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  Steelman99
I have a Sunfire Cinema Grand Series II and a Sonance Sonamp 5150. Both are currently plugged into a Monster Power HTS 5000. The Monster Power appears to still be functioning well, but it’s already nearly 17 years old. So I’m guessing it would be wise to replace it.

Any suggestions for a worthy replacement? A non-sacrificial model would be ideal.

Seems like a good one, although some of the reviews from people give me pause. If I did go Furman I will probably go with a higher end unit that I can place on my AV rack.

Thanks for your reply.
What about the Furman Elite 15 DMi Power Conditioner? Anyone here use one? And if so how do you like it?
most recommend amps to go straight into wall outlet
I recommend strictly furman power conditioners that feature the “power factor technology” feature. The rest of them, although protect very well, will diminish /compress the audible output of your sound system.
