Furman PST-8 Overview

The Furman PST-8 Digital Power Station features Furman's SMP circuitry which incorporates Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT) and a high current TVZ-MOV to insure that any electronic device (e.g. television, projector, CD-DVD player, computer, etc.) is fed clean, filtered AC power. This dramatically reduces noise, ensuring consistent peak performance from all equipment.

Furman's proprietary Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT) suppresses AC noise evenly, assuring maximum performance from your system. SMP circuitry offers the highest degree of protection against electrical surges and spikes, and does this without sacrificing itself or any of its components. In addition, the Extreme Voltage Shutdown circuit automatically turns off the unit when it is fed 137 volts or higher, protecting itself and connected equipment from the extreme voltage.

8 linearly filtered outlets
Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP) with a high current TVZ-MOV provides the highest level of AC surge suppression
Automatic Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS) guards your valuable equipment from dangerous wiring faults
Zero ground contamination circuitry assures the delivery of pure AC power thus protecting critical audio/video components
Cable satellite and Telco connectors deliver advanced protection to connected equipment

Furman PST-8 Reviews

Exactly what I needed at a great price

Finally realized after a couple of years using Amazon and other cheaply made standard surge protectors that I was putting at risk my investment in vintage audio analog gear like my Marantz receive, Otari RTR and Techniques turntable. This power station not only protects AC delivery but has an amazing analog filter to minimize interference. Fast shipping too. Thanks!

Well built

How much protection will the PST-8 give against ...

How much protection will the PST-8 give against nearby lightning strikes? I know everybody says that nothing can protect against a direct strike, but I'm just wondering how much protection I can expect if there was a strike, say, on the transformer across the street.
Asked by: Neil
Unfortunately lighting is not a fixed set amount. It is impossible to say how strong a particular strike will be and how far away will be affected.

Is the power plug angled? I need something low profile and angled to fit behind a piece of furniture. The manufacturer's specs say it includes a "36 degree NEMA 15 plug". Does it stick out far from the wall?
Asked by: Todd
Yes, the plug is angled. It sits flat against the wall and protrudes probably 5/8".

My understanding is that you are not supposed to daisy-chain surge suppressors. So is it really ok to plug my APC UPS (which has surge protection) into the PST-8? Isn't that plugging one surge protector into another, which everybody says not to do?
Asked by: Neil
UPS should be plugged directly to a outlet.

can I use a short extension cord between my computer and the input socket of this unit to get around the limited spacing of the outlets? Will the extra cord limit the protection?
Asked by: Elliott
Yes, you can use an extension cord although I would recommend making sure it is rated to handle the device before using it.
