Torus RM60 BAL vs Richard Gray Powerhouse

Get a M5400-PM and call or a day. I honestly don’t understand why you think your incoming power is so bad you need to thousands of dollars to clean it up. Worrying about the television/video components on the same breakers affecting the quality is just silly as well. Keep in mind most products already filter noiseon their own, so even some dirty power should get cleaned up by the device itself (have you ever seen a television be affected by dirty power), it’s only poorly made products that benefit from cleaner power (without the audible range, say -100dBFS).

The chance of electrical damage due to lighting/surge is almost pretty much non-existent that Panamax has a $5M warranty for the safety of connected components. I don’t see any warranty/insurance policies by those companies, which would make me very weary.

The fact that I’ve seen even $100,000 warranties for the surge protectors at Wal-Mart and no evident warranties for the two products you mentioned, should should how confident those brands are in their products protecting from dangerous surges.

A double-conversion (online) UPS should be looked into, it’s kinda like PS Audio’s power regenerstors without the fluff, it takes incoming AC, converts to DC, then back to AC, and is used in highly important situations. Even just looking on Amazon I see ones with $250,000 warranties.

@bearotti

It’s not about the fact of if you need the warranty, it’s the fact that the manufacturers stand behind their products and are confident in its performance. Would you buy a car from a new brand that doesn’t have a powertrain warranty?

I’m talking about having no warranty. If the company’s official stance is that if their product doesn’t protect your devices, they aren’t reliable, then I would be very hesitant to trust them over a much more well known, well tested brand that does offer a warranty.
