Tripp Lite?


Hello Forum,  General question, has anyone used TrippLite ISOBar outlets for their audio equipment? I have a PS Audio DECTET that took a hit from an Edison power surge and it is no longer repaired by PS Audio (discontinued).

Thank in advance for any replies, Jim.

Hey.  

Wirecutter rates some Tripp Lite surge protectors extremely highly.  They are the only source of 3rd party testing for surge protectors I know of.  They rate Furman's higher though.  :) Take a close look at the specific models they mention.  Trip Lite has introduced other models since Iso Bar which perform better.  I wrote about this in depth here and a link to the Wirecutter article is in here too. 

I use Tripp Lite surge protectors on most of my electronics. For my audio gear, I use a Tripp Lite voltage regulator/surge protector, and noise reduction unit. It's very inexpensive and regulating voltage is as important as eliminating noise. I already have clean reliable power so it's more than adequate.

"...It depends on how high the overvoltage event is."

Trying to get any real info from SCE is a challenge!

Furman PST-8’s work and sound good.

Erik recommended them a while back and I have been using them for well over a year now.
