| Surge protector OP: If it were me, I’d 100% ask if they can repair just the amps. 😂 The amp is going to be a lot lighter and smaller than the whole speaker. If you feel comfortable with a screwdriver you should be able to remove the sub amp and ship that alone... | |
| Surge protector Isn’t that what the fuse is for? @12blistn Checking the fuses is a great first step, but they aren’t really for protecting against incoming voltage surges. They are for protecting from shorts inside the gear. A damaging surge voltage may be 40... | |
| Solar flares are here, everyone unplug your dryer! @czarivey We are just happy to know you change your underwear in a regular basis. 🤣 | |
| Surge protector @robert_1 - Sounds very squishy. Furman makes units for 15 A and 20A circuits. Hope that's high enough. | |

As I pointed out in another thread, a CNN weather reporter was recommending we all disconnect our dryers. Of all the pieces of gear in his home this is ... | |
| Surge protector @jea48 - Furman with SMP will protect in both cases you mentioned. It uses series mode protection (SMP) which has no activation time. My understanding is that they rate surge protectors for 5kV surges specifically because the expectation is that ... | |
| Hsu has custom high pass filters To the point of slopes, I think THX had the best idea when they attempted to use the speakers + active crossovers to achieve Linkwitz-Riley 4th order filters. The idea is that the sealed satellite speaker, crossed at 80 Hz would naturally produce... | |
| Solar flares are here, everyone unplug your dryer! So, to all of you who plug your amps straight into the wall without using protection like your daddy told you to, let's see how we all fair on the other side of this. :) | |
| Solar flares are here, everyone unplug your dryer! @ghdprentice I'm going to try to put my binoculars and solar filters together tomorrow and take a close look! | |
