Overview
A switch with a built-in circuit breaker and a filter for electrical noise sit inside the steel shell of this Furman power block. Six outlets feed gear, and a diagnostic light shows status.
A metal case that survives being kicked around a stage or studio is the reason to buy. The joule rating is moderate, so it is not the strongest surge protection available.
Who it's for
Gigging players, home studios and workbenches get a steel strip that survives rough handling. People protecting a home theater from big surges may want higher joule protection.
Pros and cons
- Heavy-duty steel housing
- Noise filtering for audio gear
- Circuit breaker in the switch
- Diagnostic status light
- Moderate surge capacity
- Cord length not listed
- No USB charging despite spec field
Performance notes
Joule rating describes how much surge energy it can absorb before its protection wears down. EMI and RFI filtering reduces hum and buzz that noisy appliances can push into audio gear. The breaker trips on overloads to protect the strip and wiring.
