Great for our band
I've screwed this unit to a 1U rack shelf, and it goes in our mixer flightcase. One of the outputs drives everything inside the case, and the other goes to a power distributor to power all other musical equipment.
We get a good clean sound at gigs, and it's peace of mind for when there's a generator or dirty electrics. We switched to using power conditioners after the agricultural nature of some generators at wedding gigs left half of our PA in need of repair. This is our second Furman - the first still being fine, but we were downsizing our equipment from a rolling mixer flightcase with outboard FX to a 3U flightcase with wireless digital mixer.
It's not going to solve problems if you're not getting enough juice - I can recall a gig where the catering staff were on the same small generator as us and drawing too much, but it's going to protect you if that generator stalls.
From my point of view it was ideal, since all controls are on the front. Some others had reset buttons on the rear - all good until you need them in a hurry.
It is rack height, so putting it onto a shelf slightly raises the profile, and means that you need to be a bit creative if racking it up. It's a shame they don't do a rack option, but the provided mounting options mean you can secure it down easily.
In short, we run the PA and instruments through this for a live gig (no lights), and it's the hub of our power distribution. It hasn't let us down yet. Our old Furman has a voltage indicator. This does not, but in the real world it makes no difference (we still need to plug in and play).

Top accessory to plug in your monitor speakers.
I own a pair of active monitor speakers, with loads of EMI ( Electro Magnetic Interferences ) through my electric system, I have been suggested to try the firman product, after evaluating many I have chosen this one that seemed to suite perfectly the electric plug of my 2 monitors, Left + Right. Since I have installed it in my studio the monitors noisefloor have reduced increasing noticeably the depth and stage of the sound, the high end details seems more accurate than ever, just installing this piece of kit.
I'm about to get another one for the second pair of monitor right away.

This gear is just amazing!
I’ve been considering to buy this ac filter for a long long time, finally got it. And, i’m super glad that i did it. Best purchase ever! I’m playing on stage and every venue has their own energy supply which is not delivering a good filtered energy. So, i realized that my amp sounds different on different venues. So, after Furman, it’s much more stable in aspect of tone and character of the sound. There are 2 plug outs, so i use 1 for amp and 1 for pedalboard, so it’s great. If you are also suffering from noise, this gear also blocks them. Not all the time, but mostly. I’m still considering to buy a small voltage regulator and connect Furman to it, since Furman is just filtering, not regulating. Regulation is also a need on stage, in my opinion… Lastly, Furman also protects your amp and other gear from sudden voltage changes, so no worries to play in a rainy or stormy weather. You feel really safe while playing with Furman! Totally recommended!

EMI & Buzz gone
I have 4 radio amateurs antennas in the neighborhood which my studio speakers receive. When the antannas are turned on my speakers are starting to buzz and my tweeter is playing audio of those antennas. For months i have build up frustration but it is finally over! This little thing did the trick!

Feels safe
Used to safeguard my electronics. It is a bit touchy and easily sets off the earth fault circuit breaker if not connected in a certain order. Otherwise it feels like a quality part and doesnt hum or anything like that.

Great conditioner!
Recording live classical concerts is my hobby. When recording in churches, living rooms, small halls etc. I always kept my fingers crossed hoping the power was clean enough and my recording wouldn't be spoiled by clicks of an electronic device, or a deepfreeser of fridge... It happened more than once. That's why I bought this Furman power conditioner. It is not a cheap product, but it does what it is made for, not always, but almost always. I never leave for a gig without it any more. Worh every €.

OK
It's okay, but not great.
Firstly, anything you have connected to this needs to be powered off when you turn it on or it will flip the trip switch (breaker) on your fuse board. That sucks.
I was hoping this would filter out some mains noise, but it doesn't. It improves it, but it doesn't remove it. It's built well, but there are some poor design decisions including the power button - it should be on the front with your connections on the rear.

Serious protection
Portable, easy to use, and pure power. Thanks Furman!
