FurmanElite-15i 7-Outlet Linear Filtering AC Power Source

I thought this unit was an exceptional bargain. I would encourage anyone with a decent audio system to invest in a power conditioner . It’s a given that current from a wall outlet is both dirty with impurities and fluctuates in output. I liken a power conditioner to a Brita water filter for current. It cleans up and stabilizes the current. Sonically it makes a noticeable improvement lowering the nose floor. I honestly do not think the difference is noticeable with amps and preamps however it is clearly evident that source components benefit. Additionally it provides surge protection. This model comes in several sizes. I bought these smaller 7 outlet unit because I only have 5 things to plug in. It does come in larger capacities.

The Elite 15i has made a difference in my home entertainment setup. At first I wanted to protect my new LG G4 better than a power strip. At first connection I couldn't believe the difference it made on my TV picture quality and soundbar audio. Picture quality noticeably improved in clarity and contrast. Not saying night and day, but noticeable.AB tested with a Furman PST-8, Paramax MR4300, and the Elite 15i for over a week. The Elite 15i consistently had the best picture and sound in my environment.As for sound, I did not expect any improvements on a soundbar. The sound appeared improvements in clarity, played louder, better subwoofer dynamics, and an improved sound stage. Also tried the Elite 15i with both PC audio and 2 channel systems. To my surprise, the sound quality and sound stage had improved as well. The 15i was clearly the best of the three models, but with much AB testing between the PST-8 and MR4300 on my PC audio system, the PST-8 won me over the more costly model.Build quality is excellent! I wished the Elite 15i had display dimming like the Paramax as I don't like seeing any distracting display lights when in a dark environment. I now have Furman products on all my electronic entertainment units and happily satisfied with not just the protection, but improvements in sound and picture quality in my environment.

En ciertas ocasiones me embarga el deseo de compartir lo que es una buena experiencia de productos que se salen del margen de mis expectativas de forma positiva y este es el caso de este Furman Elite 15i. Estructuralmente "super" solido, macizo, uso de excelentes materiales, estéticamente me agrada en mi opinión muy lindo, pero es claro que no lo compramos por ese motivo. Particularmente y respecto a la protección he usado siempre ZeroSurge y nunca me han defraudado, ninguna perdida electrónica, pero he medido las salidas en los tomas y miden exactamente lo mismo que en los enchufes de la casa, no son estabilizadores de voltaje, por esta razón mi inversión en el Furman. Conecte este aparato al ZeroS para mantener una doble protección y realice una medición en todos los tomas del Furman, los resultados oscilaron entre un rango de 118v y 119.3v lo cual me dejo muy complacido de que cumplen con lo ofrecido. Pero la otra parte, influyen en una mejora en audio y video, si señor el audio definitivamente se mejora y lo escuche mas claro y puntual, todas las frecuencias se "limpian" de una forma maravillosa, pero hago un especial énfasis en los bajos, se escuchan de forma contundente sin agredir a las otras frecuencias. No esperaba tanto sinceramente, así que recomendaría este Purificador de AC a cualquier fanático del sonido de alta calidad. Respecto al video noto mayor brillo y entornos de líneas mas definidos. Por ultimo resaltar que este Fabricante te indican donde idealmente colocar los electrónicos de acuerdo a su categoría de audio y video, como se muestra en un diagrama que aporto del manual. Un saludo amigos del audio.

Protection great for my stereo systems .

Very well built line conditioner and surge protector. I only needed 7 outlets so this model was a perfect fit.I noticed audio and visual improvements immediately. Definitely worth it, particularly at this price for the excellent build quality.

This appears to be a product that does it's job well. It really "shouldn't" impart a sound into your audio system, unless your AC power is noisy...and then it could help clean it up a bit. My AC power is good. I bought this to protect the devices connected to it: A DAC, a computer monitor, and a Mac Mini that is my audio server. The problem with evaluating a unit like this is that you really don't "know" if it's working....ever. You know if it doesn't work, because a nearby lightening hit just took your equipment. But if it works, then your equipment should survive electrical issues.Furman has a great reputation for power conditioning, and that's why I chose Furman. It is a small thin 1RU (1 7/8" high) unit with a voltage readout on the front panel. The outlets are on the back. there is a utility light that can help you with checking out the equipment status for the equipment mounted underneath.This unit replaced an older Monster unit that failed. So far so good!

Had expensive equipment hooked up to this. Came in one day and it indicated high voltage and equipment was fried. I actually had my dvr connected to same outlet but with cheap surge protector. I used different protector for this since I keep dvr on all day. The dvr was fine. Nothing else in the house had any issues including another system I had upstairs. No clocks in the house were even blinking. I cannot believe how much I paid for this and how much damage it did.
