Power strips- too many choices


Out of necessity I need to use a power distributer/ strip.  I am impressed with how many options there are and how varied the reviews of the strips are; even some discussing degradation of the sound.   It seems surge protection would be valuable but cant figure out the other features.  Trying to decide between, Isotek vs Gigawatt vs PS audio.
Don't want to spend too much as there are other cabling needs pending. Further complicating the purchase; I have 7 cords and  at least per the Isotek website it seems that its best to use only one outlet lest resulting in "noise" from the outlier.  ( but isn't the idea of the strip to clean up that "noise") Any suggestions would be appreciated.

What about whole house surge protection?

I’m currently using two Furman products at my gear:

Furman Elite 20PFI
Furman SPR20i

My electrician said since I have a lot of. Ice gear I should get a whole house surge and said it only costs about $50. Not bad at all but I’m not sure the product or if there are higher quality products out there for this. 
+1 Shunyata Denali V2.  Bought one blind with Sigma XC PC - right out of the box it’s marvelous.  Details and see thru without brightness!
I have a Nordost distribution unit but it doesn't perform as good or better than my Furutech Wall receptacles. I found that these power components like power distributor or transformer or regenerator have a common weakness which is the receptacle piece. Although these units have hospital grade receptacles, way better than the stock ones, but they are not nearly as good as something like Furutech and other similar brands. As a result the overall distribution performance suffers. Now you can replace these receptacles but that involves money, skill and time. That's why I plug all my two channel stereo components straight to Furutech Wall receptacles.
