Has anyone tried this unit? Recommendations?

Reads like a load of marketing drivel. Expensive for a six outlet sequencer.

 

I'm very dubious about the filtering claims, as I have never seen any real evidence that it makes any difference, especially an audible difference when used on power cables. The optimum place for this sort of filter is at the entrance of the cable to the piece of equipment it is filtering, not some metres away at the sequencer.

 

If you're interested in lightning or real HV fault protection from things like HV/LV intermixes, then a whole house surge arrestor in the switchboard (professionally installed by a licensed electrician) is the best bet. Novaris (Australian) are one of the best. The MOVs in small powerboards are potentially useful as a second layer of protection, but I've also seen them explode, and take all the gear out connected to them from a nearby HV/LV intermix.

 

I have no idea what to suggest to you as I designed and built my own sequencer. Just mentioning my opinion and experience.
