Need help w/ Power conditioners and Uniterupted power supplies

BigAL2 · 28th February 2007

Hello all. This is my first post here. I just purchased a Digi 002r and a Mac Pro 2.66 Quad Processor. I have a stereo set of PAIA mic pres that I built and I am looking at getting some others. However I am not sure what I should be looking at as far as electrical protection for my system. I am looking at a few copanies ETA, tripplite and Furman. But I am open to suggestions. I just want it to be rackmountable and have plenty of outlets for my gear and future additions. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Look into a unit that doesn't just protect against surges, a true conditioner will protect against surges, sags, and clean/regulate the signal. Furman is good, I use the AR-1215 but, Tripp-Lite makes some good units as well. Hope this helps!
