Customers are impressed with the 8-Outlet Surge Protector's surge protection, quality, and ample outlet count. Users appreciate its ease of use, suitable size, and neat appearance. The slim design is also a plus for fitting into tight spaces. However, some customers find the front light to be undesirable.

This Panamax unit is a low profile so it easily fits inside most entertainment centers and can also be rack mounted. There is a power on indicator light on the front panel to indicate that the master power to all outlets is on, and there is a blue equipment light that can be turned on and off. I think this is used mainly for rack mount applications to illuminate the inside of the rack, but it is a nice visual feature in any case. This is one of those purchases that you really can't see the unit in operation, but I'm impressed with the value for the money, and after spending a lot on a nice home theater setup, the extra couple hundred dollars is well worth it to protect the investment in nice equipment.

I love this product! This isn't the first surge protector and line conditioner I have had from Panamax, and it won't be the last. It works great and has saved my electronics numerous times. Look on Youtube at the posted reviews.

8-outlet surge protector was overkill

We actually returned this item as our Geek Squad Rep told us it was overkill for what we needed. We ended up purchasing a 4-outlet surge suppressor that plugs directly into an outlet.

Coming from a Panamax PM8-AV surge protector, the MR4000 is very simple and easy to use. I wouldn't purchase this solely on the idea you're going to be getting much better PQ / AQ, unless you've got atrocious power coming into your house with tons of interference. Then it may make a small difference by cleaning some of it up.
It's low profile, doesn't run warm, no noises and works great! I highly recommend!

Great Buy. Does an excellent job of filtering out noise and electrical disturbances. I like its digital read out but not a big fan of the big knobs which have lights and controls.

I had previously purchased two Panamax 8-outlet surge protectors for my home theatre setup, and they are everything that i had hoped for. My office has more equipment these days. I needed to address the wire nest behind my desk. I decided to invest into another Panamax, and i am so happy that i did.

It’s a surge protector so until some big storm comes through and I see it do it’s job not much to say other than ... I’m not a big fan of the blue light that’s always on as it’s distracting in my mind if it’s set up with your other AV components so I put black electrical tape over it and from a distance you can’t even tell. I will say I’m not a big fan of the 8th outlet being in the front - if you are using it in a stand plugging in multiple components the front plug probably isn’t a full time option as you don’t want a cord visibly showing at all times. Think of it more as a 7+1 outlet surge protector in my mind.

Actually the Panamax unit is a line conditioner. It both protects equipment from high and low voltage surges and brown out. Additionally cuts power to protect itself from burning out. Also maintains a pure flow of energy by filtering out line noise for a better video and sound transmission.

I recently put in a movie room and wanted something to protect against power surges and provide clean power to all A/V gear and this fit the bill at a reasonable price. I currently have a UST projector, A/V receiver, Blu-ray player, Roku, cooling fans, and network switch attached and all is working as expected. Good product and good price.

Those 8 outlets come in handy when you have your TV, modem, receiver, DVR, cable box, wireless headphones, and every other thing you may want to connect into one protector. It is so sleek and stylish you won't mind having it out in the open or on a shelf with your other equipment.

If you're looking at surge protectors I would definitely look into Panamax for your protection needs. I bought this model for my master bedroom and during an outage it safely cut the power protecting my tv & blu-ray player along with my cell phone that was recharging at the time from a potentially dangerous power spike.
