The consensus seems to be that these are not actually necessary in the UK as the UK supply is fairly "clean", whereas US power supplies are not. Note that if it's just "surge protection" that you want then there are many much simpler (and cheaper) devices available.[/quote] [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/furman_pl8e.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/furman_pl8e.htm[/url] where abouts in the entire bass/head/two cabs setup does this go :s??

Then, on the rear of the power conditioner there are 8 IEC power outlets. You get a male IEC to female IEC lead [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/apart_mbac.htm"]like this[/url] and plug one end into the power conditioner and the other end into the power in for your amp. You can repeat this for another 7 devices (provided you don't exceed the max load of the power conditioner). As its rack mounted, it's ideal for supplying all of the power for up to 8 devices in a large rack. Permanently wire up all of the rack devices with IEC-IEC leads inside the rack then you just need to connect one lead to the mains to power up the whole lot. Of course [url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=33534&doy=9m9&C=SO&U=strat15"]this[/url] is a whole lot cheaper and depending upon how you read the debate above, may or may not do the same for your sound !
