    Wow ... that is a great price and with free shipping it is very tempting. Anyone have any experience with Belkin power conditioners or surge protectors?

    I have a PF 60 and a couple of Belkin surge protectors, and some PURE AV cables. They make nice quality products.

    Anyone use these with amps? I am tempted to get one for surge protection for a surround amp + sub.

    Do these actually have any sonic benefits besides just surge protection. I am interested in some conditioning but I am leary of losing dynamics.

    One problem I seem to have is that I go through tubes much faster than I should. I am wondering if it is somehow related to my AC, being an old house, with old wiring, in an old neighborhood.

    Unfortunately it is 98 dollars up here....but still a good deal if it is an improvement.

    Thanks,

    I am using the PF60, with two Adcom amps (GFA - 555 and GFA - 7607). I use the PF60 as a delayed on switch for the GFA-555 2 channel (200 wpc) amp. I also have the GFA-7607 7 channel (125 wpc) amp plugged into the Belkin PF60, however, on the always switched on feature. I also have a small sub (Martin Logan Dynamo) hooked to it. I activate the Belkin PF60 which activates the Adcom GFA-555; then manually turn on the GFA-7607 after the spike of turning it on has ceased. Once those are done, I will activate my pre-pro, and digital components which are hooked to a separate APC H10 power control center which has automatic voltage regulation. The two amps will show up to a 4-6 amp spike at start up (each), but will settle down to about an amp once there on. If I fired everything off at once, it would probably blow the 15 amp breaker. I plan to upgrade to a separate 20 amp circuit or add another 15 amp circuit down the road. Hope that helps.
