Power Distribution

I have just installed whole house surge protection, a dedicated 20-amp breaker and a short run of 12/2 to my new Hubbell 20amp receptacle for my system that’s in waiting.

With only the two outlets on the receptacle, I will need some form of a power strip or distribution bar. With no need of a power conditioner or surge protection I’m looking for some suggestions on a high-quality, reasonably price, piece of this nature.

Thanks in advance!

eric_squires - Gee, I didn’t know that, thanks Eric

hgeifman - NBM Mk IIn looks good, and it is fused. I will check it out.

If I'm going this route, I presume the highly touted Audioquest Niagra 1200 is in the same league?

With these power strips, do I want a 15 or 20 amp unit. Some offer only 15 amps others offer both 15 and 20 amp (for an upcharge) and boy, these things are expensive!

I, too, have a 20 amp dedicated line, BUT, huge gains are made with my Core Power 1800 PLC

tweak1 - Thanks, and in the same price range as the others mentioned here. I wonder if the make an equivalent product in a non-rack mount?
