Furman PL-8C 15 Amp, Advanced Level Power Conditioning, SMP, EVS, LiFT, 9 Outlets, Pullout LED Lights, Isolated Outlet Banks Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I use the PL-8C in my bass rig. One of the major reasons I decided to get this particular Furman is because a friend of mine told me that his worked for him. I mainly wanted to get something to protect all of the pieces in my rack, but I was surprised to find how much this power conditioner augments my sound.
For one thing, there is a marked decrease in signal noise, and hum. I swear that out of left field, my bass has this punchy sound that was never there. I love how there is a outlet on the front of this Furman, as I use it to power my laptop, which I use to read music off of. Also, there are 2 different banks of outlets, so that everything isn't on one circuit. The outlets in the back are spaced far enough apart so that you can have up to 3 wall wart type AC adaptors for pedals or other rack gear, although they all seem to be powered with a universal plug these days. The LED lamps are nice and bright, will last forever, and can be dimmed! Awesome!
I never have that sinking feeling of walking into a club and seeing seriously dubious electrical wiring and outlets. As long as everything is going through the Furman, it's good to go. Your rack can get hit by lightning and the Furman would just turn off everything, and dissipate the excess energy. Afterward, you just power it up again and keep
rocking.
This installed in the rack super quick. Its a little heavy for rack gear, but nothing that a professional rackmount couldn't handle. Its also quite deep, and reaches all the way back to the rear of my rack, so that you never have a problem of finding outlets, or reading anything on the back there. There is even an attachment for a gooseneck lamp.
I found mine as a demo unit from a wholesaler, so I got a good deal. But I would gladly pay $180 if I had to replace it with no regrets.

Furman PL-PLUS DMC 15 Amp, Advanced Level Power Conditioning, SMP, EVS, LiFT, 9 Outlets, Volt/Current Meter, Pullout LED Lights, Isolated Outlets Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My initial look into power conditioners was to protect my equipment then I saw that this had some line noise technology and let me tell you it kills the harshness by plugging everything nearby your equipment into it. I have a Mesa Quad preamp, Eventide Pitchfactor, Behringer Vintage Overdrive, Eleven Rack, Phillips 80 watt powered speakers, an Oyen Digital external hard drive, and a desk lamp plugged in. It is really great to have the extra room for the power supplies that are large also...and I have the front outlet if I need to plug in something else. I re recorded a song and killed eleven plugins in Pro Tools that I was using to try and get rid of the harshness. I thought it was my playing. Nope. You owe it to yourself to get one of these!
Peace of mind, and great sound! Recommended if you can't find a 1215 used or something. I found one but the guy on Craigslist wont get back with me so I got this one and I know Amazon will back it up too! I am an Amazon prime user and ordered this early Friday and got it early afternoon Saturday for $4 shipping.

Furman PL-PLUS C 15 Amp, Advanced Level Power Conditioning, SMP, EVS, LiFT, 9 Outlets, LED Voltmeter, Pullout LED Lights, Isolated Outlet Banks Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There are several types of power conditioners out there. There are really three things to look for: circuit isolation, whether the circuitry is sacrificial, and whether the unit just protects against spikes (not truly a conditioner--though many claim to be they only do this) or actually smooths out the power signal.
This unit (designated by the plus) is non-sacrificial, meaning that if it takes a big spike it won't die. A nice feature. (I would suggest getting the plus model if you buy any Furman, anything less and you could be stranded after a voltage spike.)
It has two separate circuit paths, so hook up your power amp and computer on a different circuit than your digital recording interface and pre-amps and you should be okay. More expensive units isolate every circuit, less expensive all share one--meaning that a noisy device like a power amp for studio monitors can contaminate the clean circuit you are providing to the recording interface.
This unit cleans up the power signal nicely. Where I am the power is noisy, contaminated by fluorescent lights and gets a lot of clicking and popping from a refrigerator's compressor. The noise is all gone, and all I hear is the sound coming out; I have a very low THD amp and no longer even hear the amp hiss. Amazing.
The pullout lights leave a little to be desired, but that isn't why I bought this power conditioner. Overall, dollar for dollar, this is one of the best investments I have made for my home recording studio.
