User questions & answers

Question:	What kind of power conditioning? What kind of ripple is filtered and how is it related to load? Is it active filtering
Answer:	A/C power noise is filtered. I believe that the filtering is active. The technical questions are probably better answered by Furman Tech Support. This unit is best used with audio devices and computer devices that don't draw too much amperage. This particular unit is rated at 15 Amps and I've connected 2 laptops, 1 iPad , a Macbook with audio processing equipment, 2 wireless mic receivers and a 24 channel mixing board to this unit and there was no AC noise detected when listening to the music at a loud level.
Question:	What is the difference between this unit and the less expensive M8DS? does this unit stabilize incoming voltage
Answer:	I am not familiar with the M8DS unit but the specs for the Furman M-8Dx Series 8 unit are below. The suggestion is to compare technical specs between the two units. The one I chose does include line conditioning and filtering which removes noise from incoming voltage. The unit also displays the incoming voltage which is a good feature. Spike & Surge Protection ensures equipment stays safe & power stays clean. It was a great purchase for the money. Product description Overview The Furman M-8Dx Merit X Series 8 Outlet Power Conditioner is a low-cost AC power solution for rack mount systems. Install an M-8Dx in the top slot of your rack, and the eight switched AC outlets in the rear panel will power up and protect all your equipment, up to a 15A load. The M-8Dx features a digital bright red, 3digit LED voltmeter that displays the incoming line voltage from 60 to 150 VAC (accuracy +/- 2 VAC). It also includes two pull-out light tubes for rack illumination, with dimmer control. With two Hosa Black Electrical Extension Cable has a female IEC connector. Now you don't have to use extension cords to bring power to your IEC equipped gear. This is perfect for mixers, mounted monitors, flown monitors as well as other equipment.

Question:	Can you take off the rack mount plate? I want to use it on a shelf instead
Answer:	No
Question:	It comes with a 3’ extension cord, but how long is the main cord that’s attached to the unit
Answer:	The main cord that comes out of the unit is approximately 64 inches (5 1/3 feet). An extension cord can be used as long as the extension cord is rated at 15 amps or greater. The extension cord (if one is needed) shouldn't be any longer that 10 feet.

User questions & answers

Question:	Has anyone tried it with Krk monitors or any other monitprs and a Mic preamp
Answer:	Not sure is you are asking for dimensions or how much it holds. The container will hold 1/2 cup of liquid/juice. 1 7/8" diameter at bottom of holding cup, 2 3/4" tall, 3" diameter at top of holding cup--these are dimensions of only the part that collects the juice. I hope that helps.
Question:	how long is cord
Answer:	Just for one. Also, I was not given a choice as to which color I wanted. The yellow one was sent.
Question:	Can I connect all my home studio gear in this? My laptop, monitors, EQ, audio interface, guitar amp, etc.? All at the same time
Answer:	Dear Customer, Yes, the Optical Digital Audio Cable can fit LG sound bar. Any other question, please feel free to contact us. Thanks!
Question:	Will this remove ground loop noise
Answer:	It is optical, not electrical so I cannot see why it would be a problem. Obviously that means that it is a pipeline for a high intensity beam of low level laser light. But you must take great care not to bend it very much. A kink would likely render it inoperable. My suggestion for running cables of any kind these days is to run a backup cable, or place it in a conduit so that a replacement could be pulled through or a second cable could be added.

User questions & answers

Question:	What are the length of the two Hosa power cables included with the power conditioner
Answer:	Hi -- You will need an 8mm hook, which is not included in this package.
Question:	How long is the attached power cord
Answer:	No, you cannot put a pencil grip on these as these are already ergonomic. They are squared shaped and they have a twisted handle...
Question:	Not sure what you mean by "But the sub should be on a separate circuit" I will be plugging the powered subwoofer into this unit to reduce noise
Answer:	I’m not sure. It’s very lightweight, if that’s what you’re asking. Great hook. I’ve made several chunky blankets with it.
Question:	Will this unit "conditon" a modified sine wave power inverter
Answer:	Hello. I am using the Q size hook to crochet with wider strips of cotton cloth. The hook is recommended when working with bulky yarns. See comments by lauraws1966 and Christina Allen (both dated 1/10/16) for specific appropriate weights. : )

User questions & answers

Question:	what is the let through rating on this surge protector
Answer:	Electrical Rating: 15A, 1800 Watt; Voltage protection rating L-N 400V, L-G 400V, N-G 400V. Type 3 SPD. I like it because of the extra long cord!
Question:	Anyone know what amount of current will pop the breaker on this? I assume 15 amps can't seem to confirm that
Answer:	I have tested it with a 600 Watts Oster Blender and a Bosch driller at the same time, because I had to cut the power plug, for use a Neutrik NAC3FC-HC PowerCon, and it doesn't pop, or be hot, It is made to be reliable so it was made like a main power strip, I also connect it a 1600w vacuum cleaner and not a problem
Question:	What are it's electronic specs (i.e. clamping voltage, energy dissipation, and response time)? I'm looking for something for musical equipment
Answer:	Clamping Voltage = 400V. Surge Rating = 540 joules. Response Time = n/a. (Strangely, the response time is not available on the product website. I don't know if it means that it's a problem.) I would look elsewhere. There are a lot of other surge protectors that sell for less and provide better protection. It has a normal clamping voltage but its surge rating is low. So, it's going to stop working much earlier than other surge protectors. And, it's not like this really smooths out the line noise as it filters out only 20db (which is much lower than other devices). Frankly, I don't know why people would buy this, especially at this price ($30) and why it has a high rating. I guess the unit looks sturdy and looks like a heavy duty piece of equipment but it really isn't. The company is tricking you.
Question:	Is this a surge protector or just a power strip? Not used to buying something without a Joules rating. Help! Need for my whole TV setup
Answer:	It provides 540 Joules protection as well as EMI and RFI protection.. Furman is one of the best names in power conditioning for MUSICAL equipment. That should definitely be considered. I’ve used this brand for decades with zero problems. I’m currently using an M8lx conditioner and one of these branching off of it for added protection of a Gibson guitar/Marshall amp setup with numerous add-on equipment (pedals/PA amps etc.)

Product description

For over 30 years, Furman has pioneered the development of AC power products for the most demanding audio, video, and broadcast professionals. Furman's Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP) delivers the purest AC power and the most comprehensive protection available - going far beyond what is found in traditional surge strips. With Furman's Power Station Series, everyone can reap the benefits of unrivaled power purification and unequalled surge protection. The PST-8 all feature Furman's SMP circuit which incorporates Linear Filtering Technology (Lift) and a high current TVZ-MOV to insure that any electronic device (including televisions, projectors, CD-DVD players, or computers) is fed clean, filtered AC power. This dramatically reduces noise, ensuring consistent peak performance from your equipment. Typical AC filters feature antiquated non-linear circuits. Though these multiple stage filters or power cleaners reduce some noise, they do so unevenly. In fact, they can add noise to your power line due to their filter's excessive resonant peaking. With Furman's proprietary Linear Filtering Technology (Lift), AC noise is suppressed evenly, assuring maximum performance from your system. Furman's SMP circuit offers the highest degree of protection available without sacrificing itself or any of its components. Another feature that is unique to Furman's SMP circuit is automatic extreme-voltage shutdown. Extreme voltages are statistically the most common, damaging AC event. The Extreme Voltage Shutdown circuit automatically turns off the unit when it is fed 137 volts or higher protecting itself and connected equipment from the extreme voltage. Only Furman offers this degree of protection! Add Telco and cable /satellite transient voltage suppression, and you have what is, unquestionably, the most comprehensive protection available in a portable AC power conditioner.

• Advanced Linear Filtering dramatically reduces AC line noise and contamination resulting in improved audio/video clarity
• Series Multi-Stage Protection Plus (SMP+) for the highest level of AC surge suppression; Automatic extreme voltage shutdown guards your valuable equipment from dangerous wiring faults
• Zero ground contamination circuitry assures the delivery of pure AC power thus protecting critical audio/video components
• Cable satellite and Telco connectors deliver advanced protection to connected equipment

User questions & answers

Question:	How long is the cord and is the plug straight or right-angled
Answer:	93 inch cord, right-angled plug
Question:	Which furman surge protetor would be best suited for my desktop computer, this one (pst-2+6 power station) or the ss6b? thanks
Answer:	The SS6B is a surge protector. The PST-2+6 is both a surge protector and a power conditioner. If the gear you're using it with were sensitive to EM interference, like a power amplifier, or was part of an audio signal path, then you want the PST-2+6 or better. For home computer use, get the less expensive SS6B since what you are looking for is surge protection, not power conditioning.
Question:	Would any recommend this for dj equipment such as powered speakers and powered subs or should i go with the pst-8d version
Answer:	Thanks for your question. I'd recommend the 8 for commercial gear. This is a fantastic conditioner. World Wide Stereo is 36 years old and a very proud Furman dealer.
Question:	Will this unit eliminate noise/hum from the ground line? Or does it only filter the two AC lines
Answer:	Sham,It will eliminate a degree of noise, and the further you travel up the Furman product line the more the noise will filter out.Eric C
Question:	Do you sell 220-240V Furman products
Answer:	I'm looking into something 220-240 as well... any suggestions?
Question:	Is this power conditioner sufficient for an onkyo 656 receiver, klipsch r-112 subwoofer, 4 floorstanding and 2 atmos speakers
Answer:	The rated load for this Furman unit is 15A. I can't specifically comment on whether is ideal for your exact setup, however, the receiver would be the part of your system drawing the highest load and that is rated at 580W. Meaning at 120V it would draw a maximum 5A of current. Based on these assumptions, the power conditioner would be fine for your needs. I should comment that this is a rack mounted unit designed for professional audio. The rack ears may not give you the desired aesthetic, if you are looking to shelf mount the unit. Just thought I should mention that.
Question:	A reviewer asays that this device does not do avr (automatic voltage regulation) power conditioning. what power conditioning does it do?does it
Answer:	OVERVIEW Safe and stable voltage for optimum performance at an affordable price. The Furman Merit M-8LX Power Conditioner is the perfect low-cost AC power solution for any rackmount audio system. The Merit M-8LX has eight switched AC outlets in the rear panel to power and protect all your equipment with up to a 15-amp load. The Furman Merit M-8LX protects your delicate electronic equipment by combining high voltage varistor (MOV) surge and transient suppressors. The fast-acting suppression circuit quickly responds and clamps transient voltages to safe levels. An RFI/EMI interference filter works to prevent noise from fluorescent lights, certain dimmers, radio transmitters, and similar sources of electronic pollution from contaminating the AC line and from there, leaking into sensitive audio, video, or computer circuits. NRTL/TUV listed. The Furman Merit M-8LX Power Conditioner features 2 slide out, swiveling light fixtures to provide discreet illumination of your equipment on stages, in studios, and in other dark places. A dimmer knob lets you adjust the lamp brightness to just the right level.
Question:	Can this be use for a home theater room? for tv, sound system, xbox one ect
Answer:	Absolutely. It's designed for pro audio rather than home audio applications, so you wouldn't need the rack mount. But regardless you'd have access to quiet clean power with surge protection. And the lights could come in handy too.
