    Trauffaut? Jules and Jim?
    Jools Holland?

    ... or maybe even the SI derived unit of energy , which, in terms of fundamental SI units, is 1 kg-m^2 / sec^2 ?

    I've got a Panamax m5400 pm in the mix. It's been pretty nice. Matches the marantz perfectly. I've had several other Panamax products with zero issues. But whole house surge protection at the fuse panel is better than anything at the wall plug. And cheaper too.

    I have had two of those APC's, one is still in my 2ch rig. IIRC, a fellow Polkie bought the other H15 off of me.

    The H15 has been great, zero issues.

    The major advantage that the H15 will have over the Panamax is true voltage regulation. The Panamax will simply shut down if voltage gets out of hand (too high, too low).

    You guys were brutal w/ this dude ..lol But for his benefit I'll tell him no matter how many joules your conditioner , power center or plug strip has nothing is going to help against a direct or even a near miss lightening strike. My Sampson PS-15 I think has some 1200 joule protection which I know is not a lot but it has the requisite number of outlets which is 9 and conditions nothing. Also has a giant lit rocker switch and a small reset switch.
