Furman Elite-15 DM i Fuente de alimentación de CA de Filtro Lineal de 13 tomacorrientes

This replaces a monster power conditioner which I owned for the last 15 years. The Furman does the job but has a lower quality, much shorter power cord. The numeric lighting is less sharp. My opinion is that the ascetic look is somewhat inferior. It is rated at 15 amp, the monster 50 amp. Furman has 2 more power insert slots. Monster has a more flexible switched, unswitched process. I do not believe monster offers an equivalent option, so Furman is a viable option.

Just one week worked and no any complain.

After acquiring a solar PV system with storage batteries, we noticed a distinct degradation in our audio system sound quality. After some research, we concluded the noise resulted from our solid state (VERY high efficiency) inverter. The Furman brought back every nuance of our audio system - and perhaps more. Not an inexpensive solution, but a reasonable investment for even modest audiophile sound. Absolutely a great addition to our system!

Very good product

Finally assembled my home AV system (Sony 55' 240 htz flat screen, DefTech STS towers and surrounds in a 7.1 configuration, Denon 4311 processor and matching Denon Bluray player, high-speed HDMI cable, and stock power cords and inter-connects).This system was initially assembled using a Monster HTS 1650 power conditioner that was thrown in by Best Buy when purchasing my Sony. I am currently using an Elite 15 DMi conditioner in a two-channel stereo music system and have been very satisfied with the audio and the Linear Filtering Technology of the DMi.There are many very expensive conditioners on the market and choosing one can be intimidating if one does not have lots of experience in electronics (like me). You want a conditioner to do two things: (1) protect against AC power surges and dips, while (2) enhancing the video/audio signal AND not detracting from the signal while it's protecting your gear. While the Monster did protect my system, I felt the A/V signal might be being compromised in some fashion by the Monster.I first considered the Furman Elite 15 PFi power conditioner. Compared to the Furman Elite 15 DMi conditioner (under review here) it is identical except that it contains some type of capacitor to allow for a reserve of power for a sudden really high current draw. It also requires a separate power cable and has two pull-out rack lights for use when the light is low in your room. It does not have front digital readouts like the DMi. It's considerably more expensive than the DMi and requires extra funds for a separate power cable. Since my system never makes a large draw on current and because it's considerably more expensive than the DMi I chose the DMi. Plus the DMi has two neat digital readouts that look good in my set-up, a voltage in readout and a current voltage use readout. These can be dimmed if one chooses. The attached power cord on the DMi is 14 awg and is sufficient for my system. I add that I have dedicated 12 awg 20 watt fuse wiring connected directly to the breaker box (a must for all sensitive electronics including computers). Another plus for the DMi is that it is built like a tank with a non-descript industrial-like matte black finish.Performance. I do not think the word "dramatic" is an overstatement for the improvement in the video using the DMi. The improvement in picture quality was amazing with blacker blacks, crisper colors, and a cleaner overall picture. This must be the Linear Filtering Technology at work. A tremendous upgrade for a reasonable price. Perhaps the improvement in video quality with the DMi is more an indictment of the Monster conditioner than a plus for the DMi. The Monster HTS 1650 is not an expensive conditioner and it's probably not unfair to say that it's equivalent to an inexpensive power strip from Home Depot. In my opinion the HTS protects but does little else. I could not perceive any difference in audio quality using the DMi relative to the Monster.Downsides of the DMi: The downsides are related to my lack of tech knowledge about power conditioners. The unit comes with switched and unswitched outlets on the back (eight switched and four unswitched plus one courtesy outlet on the front which is unswitched). These terms drew a blank during set-up and with a little help from Google and a lot of help from Furman's tech guys I was able to figure it out and get the plugs in the appropriate outlets. Switched outlets turn on and off with the unit's main front toggle switch; unswitched outlets are always on even if the main toggle is off. Frankly I'm not sure why this outlet configuration is needed but it's got something to do with a triggering device which, according to the Furman tech guy, was irrelevant in my system. I wanted to leave the TV, processor, Bluray, and speaker subs in standby for quick turn-on and so I wanted all rear DMi plugs to be in the unswitched mode by leaving the DMi's front toggle switch in the "on" position all the time. Since there were not enough unswitched plugs on the back of the DMi to accommodate my needs I was able override this constraint (i.e., make them all unswitched) by depressing a convenient by-pass button on the rear of the unit. Doing this still leaves the gear protected from AC power surges or dips while in standby with the DMi front toggle switch in the "on" position. As usual the user's manual is not clearly-written (for the inexperienced). Furman's tech department really helped me. A final downside is that Furman should provide a way to turn off all front digital readouts if desired. But not a big deal as the very faint blue front readouts don't distract.Highly recommended !
