Surge protection for SF Line 3


I'm in the market for a surge protector for my Sonic Frontiers Line-3/se Pre-amp.I would like a conditioner/surge but Chris Johnson who designed the unit says it should be plugged strait into the wall.We have a fair amount of surges and power outages in our area so I need some protection.I'm using dedicated line's for each of my components with hubble outlets.Any opinions would be great..

If your concerned about power surges and restoral of power spikes, then get with your power company and see if they offer a surge protection device which mounts onto the outside power meter (they pull your meter from the box, install a surge protector which is similiar in size to the meter & then re-connect the meter to the surge protector). I've had one for several years now, and have never had any worries. My power company charges $4 per month -- oh well, a simliar device, which I'll call a Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) made by Square D is over $1K and doesn't include installation -- let alone getting an act of congress to approve the install to the power meter (which no one owns but the power company). Several years ago, a lightening strike hit across the street and that house lost practically everything plugged into the wall (TV's, Computers, Fridge, etc).
