Tripp Lite Isobar Metal Surge Suppressor, 8 Outlets, 12 ft Cord, 3840 Joules, Light Gray

Am using this to power and protect high-end audio gear. Previously used another well-known brand which specializes in rack mount applications, until I noticed that its green OK LED was a bit dim. According to the manual, this means it's not protecting very much, but what good is this news to the user? The Tripp-Lite has meaningful specs, compared to others: more detailed and citing the published standard by which it is being measured. Before installing the Tripp-Lite, I did a dynamic range measurement with the older unit, then installed the Tripp-Lite and repeated the test exactly. The Tripp-Lite provided one more dB (C weighted) of dynamic range than what I was using before, so I am happy. It adds no noise to the amps, and it is a very reasonable price with a fantastic warranty. I had some questions about small details, and I emailed customer support. Received a quick and very helpful response within a day. Don't know why anyone would buy anything else.
