I am not currently interested in Whole Home, so I have only these 2 options today. Please chime in at will though. I will be purchasing either shortly for my main system (listed below) The Furman is the better brand, higher cost, available at a savings of $173.29 over retail. Has longer durability without being MOV self sacrificial. 4 high current outlets. 15amp in/out The APC is the more publicly know unit, lower cost, but still at a retail price. Good joule rating, but lower overall durability. Has automatic voltage correction in 3 settings. 2 high current outlets. 12amp in/out. Possibly 3 amps are reserved for A.V.R. reserve? http://www.furmanpower.com/product/conditioner-power-ht-15a-dual-meter-ELITE-15 DM I http://www.apc.com/shop/us/en/products/APC-AV-Black-1-5kVA-H-Type-Power-Conditioner-120V/P-H15BLK ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Main system : Panasonic TC-P60ST60 plasma; Denon AVR-X6200W; Outlaw 5000; Klipsch RSW-10 sub; modified Klipsch Chorus II Fronts; modified Klipsch Forte II center; modified Klipsch Chorus II surrounds; modified Klipsch Academy rear heights; JBL L20T3 front heights; Mogami 10ga speaker cables, Mogami interconnects; custom gaming pc Secondary system LG 47" LCD; Onkyo tx-nr818; JBL 240Ti Fronts; JBL L40T3 Center; JBL L100T3 Surrounds; Mogami cables; custom htpc/server.

A big thank you to friends and family of Seth.

Very excited to own my first brand new OPPO 203. I even got something extra in the box from ordering directly from https://www.oppodigital.com/blu-ray-udp-203/

I am debating the cost to benifit of paying $1600 for an amplifer with XLR and RCA connections VS an amplifier of exact same specifications EXCEPT RCA only connections for $1300. So is it worth $300 or (23% more) for XLR connections? I am already aware of the long cable runs benefit, which I do not have a need for.

Yes, I was referring to the XLR models. I really thought all the Monolith models that were not B-stock were going to be XLR from now on. Just the 3/5/7 models mind you. Thanks for the tip. I did not see those listed previously, but I may have missed that B-stock item during my frequent checks. Now I have to decide if I continue to wait, or just get the non xlr model at a discount. I called Monoprice, and they have 20+ Monolith 7 B-stock in inventory. My Denon denon x6200w does not have XLR, but I wanted to future proof, just in case I eventually end up with a XLR pre/pro at some future time. I sure could use 200Watts now. I am trying to push 5 Chorus II's with a 100x5 now. I am trying to offload as many channels off the AVR as possible to run it as if it were a pre/pro. I have 9 channels are running currently. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Main system : Panasonic TC-P60ST60 plasma; Denon AVR-X6200W; Outlaw 5000; OPPO UDP-203; Klipsch RSW-10 sub; modified Klipsch Chorus II Fronts; modified Klipsch Forte II center; modified Klipsch Chorus II surrounds; modified Klipsch Academy rear heights; JBL L20T3 front heights; Mogami 10ga speaker cables, Mogami interconnects; custom gaming pc Secondary system LG 47" LCD; Onkyo tx-nr818; OPPO UDP-83; JBL 240Ti Fronts; JBL L40T3 Center; JBL L100T3 Surrounds; JBL L200T3 in rotation; Mogami cables; custom htpc/server.
