Customer Reviewsfrom Southeast MO. September 27, 2012Music Background: Musician Very pleased with unit, thus far meeting my needs.Happy with quality of unit and design. The light features are very nice, as well as easy to use front control. The rear optional lighting is great feature for working with power and cables in a rack case.Good heavy, but flexible power cord. The extra socket space for the wall warts are a cool feature. Seems to be a rugged well built unit. A good investment for any road case/gear setup to protect from line surges and other damaging noise on power lines. from New Hampshire July 13, 2012Music Background: Amateur musician and sound engineer Works for meI am starting to build up a collection of rack units. This neatens up the power cables and lets one switch turn everything on at once. I'm not sure how to evaluate the 'Power Conditioner' effects. The lamps are a nice bonus and have a dimmer. Very nice appearance.from Hartville, OH USA July 4, 2012Music Background: Recording Engineer, Live Sound engineer and Student Best power conditioners in the marketI was interested in getting consistent, quiet and clean power to my interface and monitors. The only name that comes to mind Furman. They are at the top of the pile for power conditioners. Something like this should go in your rack and be invisible. That is exactly what Furman gives you, quality power all the time that you don't have to worry about.from United States June 20, 2012Music Background: Gigging amateur great power conditionerquick, simple and easy. Very effective. Build quality is great. Happy all around. lights are an added bonus, and are surprisingly useful.from Georgia May 3, 2012Music Background: Live sound, DJ, Hobbyist Really does the jobThe PL-8C took out all the hum and buzz that you get from lights and other interference sources. Now I get the true deeper warm sound.from NJ USA March 22, 2012Music Background: performer (brass), recording engineer, music educator you'll see and hear the improvementThis arrived yesterday after I'd finished with studio work for the day. So, to run it in a bit, I hooked it up in place of the power conditioner I use for our home theatre system. The improvment in color density and vividness, just on regular cable TV, was obvious to both of us. We then tried it out on an episode of Game of Thrones. The sound had an enhanced clarity and, yet, was rounder and fuller at the same time: more sheen on the highs, more body on the mids, wonderful tightness in the bass. An excellent purchase. We'll be getting another one of these soon.from Kalamazoo, MI February 23, 2010Music Background: Engineer SurprisedI didn't expect much from this unit as it is what I consider mid-line price.But it has made a significant change to my rack. While I did not have a problem with line noise before this actually has allowed me to crank up the gain to an optimal level with no noise floor being present. The workmanship is not quite what I'd like, as the front jack is a bit crooked, but the rest of the unit is solid. I was using another brand of conditioner before and this was a big improvement. |
