Whole House Surge Protection…recommendations!


I am considering a surge protection solution for the whole house in my main breaker box. I also have two dedicated 15A lines for my audio room. In a recent discussion @maxwave recommended a Siemens whole house protection device. Based on Siemens recommendation (where I live), Siemens FS140 model fits the bill. 

The other product comes to mind is Environmental Potentials EP-2050 at twice the cost. Is there another product I should consider before hiring an electrician?

Thank you!

My brother, who lives a few miles away from me is still in the process of repairing/replacing appliances in his house from lightning a month ago, and he has "whole house" protection installed in his 200 amp panel.  The power company, Gulf Power, had to replace a large section of his service entrance.

LOL.... He needs to replace the power company
