Priced kinda high, though i got a great deal with price match from competitor who had it $100 off. I wanted the the extra outlets which this one had for potential add ons in the future, plus an extra outlet up front which could turn out to be useful in the future. Bought for surge protection, automatically shutting down components when voltage is low or highand, it has a voltage display with blue accent lights.
Has high current outlets which I don't really need but have. Have my receiver plugged into this one, along with Xbox36/, Blu-ray, cable box, subwoofer power supply, ABUS power supply, and Samsung 64" smart TV. One of the front knobs came off when my cable box which I sat on top of the Panamax slid off as I had my head stuck in the entertainment center hooking stuff up. Guess it caught the front knob and it popped.off. Wasn't even a hard hit. Anyway seemed cheap but it popped back on fine. Seeing how I will rarely be messing with stuff inside entertainment center, I doubt it will be any issue. Also those knobs have small yellow colored lights that are dimmable for ambient lighting I suppose.
Just got it hooked up last night so have not experienced a power surge or loss of power, though I am confident it will do its job. Really like the voltage display. Blue accent lights. Doesn't weigh much. Has. an 8' power cord which is heavy gauge with a low profile plug. Be aware, I lost one plug due to using the low.profile plug from my TV which when plugged in covered one of the plugins because it wasn't the typical vertical or straight plugs (more of an offset plug). Not sure what to call it. Just something to think about.
Anyway, worth the money I spent and should outlast any surge protector. Don't waste your money on those or get fooled into the $500k replacement value of connected.items offered on surge protectors. Was disappointed in Best Buy when asking about power surges and was pretty much steered in the direction of Monster which was the most expensive, which I did buy. Did not open, and returned for Panamax when I learned they carried them. Of course if you don't have the money then buy the less expensive panamax or other power conditioner...do your own research before investing and find what will work for you. I buy what I can afford, for the future, for quality, efficiency, and have features.that I need, want, and will use..this is a good intermediate product if you hook up a little more.than just a TV and DVD. Player. Run my CAT6 through it and it seems to have a fast connection but haven't clocked it. Anyway, I woukd recommend but get it on sale if you can!

Product is easy to set up and use, it has a clear display, but the display does not dim completely, only the lights that focus up or down, the voltage indicator and blue LED's do not dim, so keep it in a cabinet or behind some tinted glass, otherwise it could be a distraction if placed under a display. The instructions do not clearly describe what the 4 plus 4 outlets are for, sort of confusing. Otherwise, it seems to be doing its job.

First Let me say I have had this product for almost 2 months. I have a 64 inch TV, a 5.1 amp, Bluray player, 2 tower speakers, and a PlayStation 4.
The day I purchased this product and saw a picture quality difference. I tested it out with and without my tv hooked up to it and found that there was less fuss.
Its a great additional protective measure to have.In short this product has saved me tons of money and trouble.
I'm pretty happy that i went out and got this.

I use this to clean up the wall outlet for my A/V system and for surge protection. The two work lights and voltage monitor are nice touches. The ability to dim both is great. The small size makes this unit easier to place in the system stand. Has work from day one with NO problems noted.

Powering Your Entertainment Center Must!

This specific Panamax is outstanding. (I highly recommend it!) It is perfect for powering your entire entertainment center & then some.
This particular model has a very functional lighting system that can add a little extra panash.
This power conditioner works outstanding! I live in FL, so lightning storms are frequent & this unit will power everything down if there is any fluctuation (to high/low) with the power source. (This could save you when your not even at home & there's a power surge.)
I will never use any of my electronics in my home without a Panamax power conditioner.
(Yes, it does make a difference in your televisions picture & sound! Especially if you are still running Plasmas....)
I have several Panamax units in my home and they are an essential part of my home in more ways than you can think of. They can be used for multiple applications & allows me to put my mind at ease....
All around great product! (Yes it is a little pricy, but look at it this way: "Why would you not want to protect & inhance your investments?" Especially when a piece of equipment like this Panamax not only inhances & protects your equipment, but they provide a worry free warranty as well!" You can't really ask for more....)

Great Entry Level Protection

This is the minimum one should buy for their equipment. I will probably get another. It tells you the voltage coming through, has a eight (two separate bays) plug ins in the rear, and on the front another plug in with a usb charging plug inm, as well. Slim, solid, guaranteed by a leader in surge protection...

Functionality & Security

I thought I had great picture and sound before I purchased the MR4300. I started to get a bit nervous about my HT and old power strip, as I've got a few grand invested at this point. 2-3k is not a lot relatively speaking but it is to me. I'd just got a vizio 55" 3D which looked great. I was skeptical about the improved pic/sound but after the 15min. it took to hook everything back up, I was pleasantly surprised. Even Blu-ray looked better! My sound was about 5-7db louder at the same volume setting. 9 outlets leaves room for expansion and the USB slot is nice, perfect when I expand from 6.1 to 7.2. The dimmable lighting ads a bit of elegance/coolness. On top of everything, I got the Panamax for under $299 with a price match. Now maybe one for the bedroom.

Quality surge protection and power filtration

I bought this unit to replace a 15 year old Panamax power strip on my home theater system. I decided to try this unit out since I only needed 5 outlets and liked the look of the rack unit. I have been using it for approximately a month and a half with no issues. I have witnessed it automatically disconnect anytime it senses a high/low voltage surge. I also thought the amber, ambient lights were a nice touch. I highly recommend this unit to anyone looking for a reasonably priced and quality surge protector/line conditioner.

Bought it online with store pickup. At the time of pickup, BB price matched it happily. Got it at a great price. I wasn't sure of its need as I was buying it at the advise of friends. Found out its usefulness when it successfully filtered disturbance caused by dryer buzzer. It used to previously disrupt my tv. Digital readout is useful.

Worth the investment over a standard power strip

I got this to replace a Monster Cable power distribution block and filter. It showed me day one there was an issue with my homes wiring. I had no idea that I had a bad ground in the outlet. I rewired my home entertainment system's outlet directly to the breaker box and put a good ground on it and I got even better sound from my receiver. Now before this, I wouldn't have even checked to see if I had a good ground in the outlet, everything worked ok before. This thing has been rock solid and well worth the money.

The product is very slim and stays out of plan sight. It has a great feature that lets you set the brightness of the console. The surge protector has over a million dollars in coverage. This is great to have in my city that has very random power surges. This small investment goes a long ways.

I personally recommend it, because of the panamax product warranty in which it covers your electronics and the smooth constant amps kept required on a surround sound system and picture quality needed to product the best picture and sound,

I like this surge protector because it blends in with my audio components perfectly, its all black and seamlessly fits in well.I recently had an outage and this unit performed well.My equipment works fine with no issues. What i like is that it will remind you of an outage even wjen your not home. The voltage display and amp rack lights automatically come on when there is an outage.

We live across from a substation and are the first customers on-line whenever there is a shutdown/start-up at the facility. I rest much easier knowing that this device is hooked up and working to protect my investment.

I bought this replace my 10+ year old Monster surge protector. Luckily we have not had a lot of power issues in the last few years so have not been able to really tell an improvement in my picture quality. I felt this would be a good upgrade to my new 4k Samsung JS6500 and Denon 2200. I really like that you can dim the front display and like the down lights. I have a tendency to watch the power level but not a real issue. I liked so much I bought the 5100 for my other TV.
