I'm looking for three surge protectors to protect my home studio. I live

Please help me to identify quality brands and models to purchase?
I wouldn't trust most "surge protectors" under those conditions.
I'd seriously consider UPS units for real isolation from line sags
and faults. IMHO, a cheap UPS offers more protection than an
expensive surge protector (assuming a REALLY EFFECTIVE,
no-hype "surge protector" even exists.)
Not really. You'd be surprised at just how little protection stuff is
in the typical standby UPS systems... and you're still connected directly
to the AC line until the power goes out and the relay cuts you over.
