Power Conditioners

Here's the most brilliant bit of marketing I've ever read, from the Pangea page, listed by the OP:

There are zero current-limiting circuits or electronic components of any kind inside."

The Furman conditioners with LiFT and SMP have lots of components which protect you against surge and also reduce noise starting at around 3 kHz.

If you want a "straight wire" with nothing changed, may I suggest the much cheaper kit from Parts Connexion:

Personally, for $200 I'd rather have a Furman PST-8 which actually protects the equipment and reduced audible noise than a fancy box for power outlets, but that's just me.

Being an electronics technician, my recommendation would be the Furman, will get the RF.

Hey there, @pcrhkr - Furman makes different grades of similar gear. The Furman models which I recommend have LiFT and SMP, which are effective down to 3 kHz.  The series mode suppression is among the best there is.

If you have only looked at their less expensive line, your comment above makes sense.

Whole panel supressors SHOULD be used, but get a series mode protector near your delicate gear. Please note the activation voltage of whole house surge suppressors is often quite high, ~ 300V, and take a while to activate. I installed one in a Square D panel and the instructions clearly recommended additional protection at your gear. I’ve read from a single source that lightning strikes can induce a surge in the wiring itself, it doesn’t have to come down the line, so that’s another reason to have a suppressor near the gear.

This question comes up so often I've made a blog post about it:
