M-10x E : The starting point of your studio rack ...

I got the Furman M-10x E for my home studio rack. I use it to locally power outboard rack equipment. This equipment consists of a mixer, multi-effects unit and a compressor. I also power some other equipment off it. The Furman can be considered a very fancy high spec plug board, as all the equipment is powered from the one location. Having the one On/Off switch on the front of the unit to isolate power is very convenient. It is also comforting to know that the equipment is protected from any surges/spikes that may happen in the supply. Living in a built up area the 'Quality' of the power supply is not great, but since getting a power conditioner, the background noise has been considerably reduced. Anyone thinking of getting rack equipment should consider a power conditioner, as it really is the starting point of a clean signal path.
