Looking for some opinions on some digital components my dealer recommends

My dealer recommends that I buy this: 

Torus Power TOT MAX Ultra compact toroidal isolation power conditioner, 15A It sounds like something that would be good, its not cheap so I would like to know if anyone is familiar with this and can offer any opinions

He also recommended I buy this: 

Ashly 3.6SPvProtea DSP Loudspeaker System Processor 3-In x 6-Out with USB

I really don't understand the Ashly at all and I told him that I don't need it. Does anyone know what this does and if it would be beneficial to a home system? Thanks Bob

Thanks for the comments. I feel good now about ordering the TOT Max. I will ask my dealer if he thinks I need the SMSS 
The Ashly would be for my home setup. I think he said the Ashly would be good for setting up the two Paradigm SW1000 subs in my system. I think he said its expensive to set up the Ashly so I would rather spend the money on possibly a Lumin T2 but not sure about that either

Doesn't paradigm subs come with a microphone and DSP to help with setup?

Yes it does come with a microphone to run ARC but he wants to start with ARC and then use something else. The Ashly would be separate from that for the bass but I have decided already after reading some of the posts that it is not necessary for my system

@goldprintaudio Thanks for your comment. I ordered the Torus Tot Max with the surge protection
