Terrific value to protect your network equipment. Although commonly used for recording, the Furman M-8Dx works well in a shallow equipment rack and looks great.

With the Furman Sound Merit X Series M-8DX Power Conditioner, safeguard your valuable electronics with professional-grade surge protection and power filtration. Designed to fit seamlessly into any rack mount system, the M-8DX is an essential component for audio/video setups, ensuring clean and consistent AC power. The unit boasts eight rear-panel outlets, each capable of handling a comprehensive 15-amp load, making it ideal for an array of electronic equipment.
The M-8DX is not just about power management; it also offers practical features for ease of use. Two retractable, swiveling light fixtures emerge from the front panel to cast a subtle glow over your equipment, allowing for easy operation in low-light environments such as stages and studios. The intensity of these lights can be fine-tuned with the convenient dimmer knob, providing the perfect level of illumination without causing glare or reflections.
Additionally, the M-8DX is equipped with a vivid red, three-digit LED voltmeter, presenting real-time feedback on the incoming line voltage. This feature is crucial for monitoring and troubleshooting voltage irregularities that could potentially harm sensitive electronics.
The power conditioner also includes a "Wall Wart Spacing Indicator" on the rear panel, which aids in the organization of bulky power adapters, ensuring they fit comfortably without wasting any outlet space. This thoughtful design maximizes the usability of all nine outlets, enhancing the functionality of your setup.
The Merit X Series M-8DX's robust construction and reliable performance make it a smart investment for protecting and optimizing your network equipment, recording gear, or any other electronics that require stable and secure power.
