Donjr, What a coincidence. I bought my Schitt Bifrost under the same condition.
Also, if the Mapleshade PC is too expensive, try the Wiremold l10320 power strip. It, like the Mapleshade, has no fuses, passive protection, indicator lights, or switch contacts to muddy up the sound. It used to go for under $30 but this is the best price I could find for the moment;

It's sad that it's now going for more than twice its price from a decade ago and that their power strips with circuit breakers, lights, etc. goes for less than half. They must have caught onto the demand from audiophiles.
By the way, it's the only power strip that Naim recommends for their products.
All the best,
