What type of surge supp, spike, or line conditioners do most of you use? Some of them can run hundreds of $ and arent they all rated at 15amps 1875 watts, that means with some of us running mulit amps ect, we would have to have several of these. Thanks

    The ones made by Monster seems to be the most popular. I think their cheapest one is $699 retail. I just use a $15 surge protector.

    $199 WOW! I'll have to check that out. I thought the 5100 was their entry model.

    Did you see/hear a difference when you hooked up all your gear to it?

    Can't say I really did. Partly due to the fact I'm running off a direct 20 amp line from the main breaker panel of the house, the power is cleaner than if I ran off an existing outlet inside the house.

    That $199 is local B&M pricing, I'm sure you can land it for less on line.
