Are standard surge protectors up to the task?
http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1724108 guy getting EMI from a washing machine to his computer's audio. OP says his system is plugged into a "surge protector (UPS)", so, not sure which it is, exactly.
Anybody using dedicated, more expensive 'power conditioners', emi filters/ac line filters ?
I saw on various sources around the internet saying this is all bologna, but i imagine there's things like radio/transmitter equipment that'd be sensitive to EMI from all sorts of things. i guess some people have been saying you can get cleaner video (blacker blacks..,) which sounds maybe possible with CRTs, but i can believe it when it comes to audio equipment.
do they get by on slightly more reputable, but still cheap surge protectors or do they need something a bit more [H]ardcore ?
