Furman Elite -15i linear filtering AC power source

Anyone with any experience with this product?

Currently, I have no stand alone power conditioner or surge protection unit with my 2 channel setup. My thinking is that I would like to both protect the equipment and possibly send cleaner power to the components. I'm running everything on a 20 amp circuit.
My questions: The above Furman Elite 15i is 15 amp capacity. Will it work in a 20 amp circuit?
My gear; Mcintosh MA6500 integrated amp, Fios with dvr, Oppo dvd player, Wadia 170i transport, a MF V-DAC and a 42" Pansonic plasma.

Thanks for any help

Received my Elite 15i on Wednesday the 10th. Probably have 12-14 hours on it and honestly don't hear any improvement as yet. Maybe a slight step backwards. Also don't see any improvement on my video feed from Fios either.
Is there a break in period? I'll report back after 100 hrs.

Roughly 120 hours. An acceptable level of ecstasy.

I think for my application of Mcintosh and dvd or Mac and digital (wadia and MF V-DAC) source or 42" plasma a 15amp unit should be more than plenty.
Maybe (future) my theater will need a 20amp maybe two 20amp units.
