Brilliant product and very well built. Noticeable difference in performance of my system after I got this . The digital volt meter is accurate , only when you hook it up you will realise the amount of fluctuations that comes through your house electricity. I use a CA Azur 851 E and W with project 1 xpression Carbon hooked on to Eminent speakers

I was on the look out for decent power protection for my HiFi gear and came across this product. It comes with two separate power rails which is very handy, the sockets and the equipment are well built. There is an output display for the Voltage as well, it also has US power connectors so no need to plug in power socket converters (US 2 pin to India 2 pin). Overall quite pleased with the product, I’ve been using it for over a month now and happy with my purchase.

A solid and chunky power supply that won’t tip over if you have heavy power cables. The digital readout is great to have.
