zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: It doesn't make any - seriously, there;s no hum or crackly interference at all. Feature: For my money they could have left off the wimpy lights and put four more sockets on the front. The rheostat for the lights is nice - but an on/off switch for the lights would have been good, too. If the unit is on the lights are on, and they get warm tucked-away inside the thing. Consider taking the bulbs out. Ease of Use: Turn it on. Turn it off. Quality: Well built, solid metal construction, heavy-duty mains cable. Value: It's a tad-bit expensive for what it is. It's just a spike/surge suppressor - there's no actual power conditioning going on. Manufacturer Support: The best support is support you never need. Haven't needed them yet. The Wow Factor: It's a glorified power strip - but it looks nice in my rack. Has a nice LED so you know it's on. A big textured rocker switch. Two wimpy pull-out lights that barely throw enough light to see by. Overall: Would have got a 9 if it had on/off for the lights.

VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: It doesn't do anything negative to my sound. It doesn't really do anything positive either, but its not supposed to. It just protects your gear. Feature: The same as the guy below me said, it really is a glorified power strip. The lights are pretty nifty, they do illuminate your rack pretty well, but I don't find a use for them. I don't fault them being there though. Ease of Use: Big button, turn on. Green light means all's good. Turn off, your whole rig powers down. Quality: Not bad. If you have an expensive rig, of course you're going to want to buy a more expensive conditioner, but if you're like me and not made of money, this is a great rack. Value: I got a deal on this but its probably only worth $50. Again, a glorified power strip. Manufacturer Support: Haven't dealt with them yet The Wow Factor: You need a power conditioner if you have a rack. Its just good practice to protect your gear. Overall: I'm gonna hold on to it for a few years until I need to replace it with a higher quality, in which case I will probably be purchasing a higher quality furman.
