Norman86 Talking of these power conditioners.. What is the actual difference between the PS10 and the PB10? Other than the price of course?? http://www.soundz.co.za/pSAPS10/Samson-Audio-Powerstrip-PS10-230V-Power-Distribution-Strip.aspx http://www.soundz.co.za/pSAPB10/Samson-Audio-Powerbrite-PB10-230V-Power-DistributionConditioner.aspx If its only the price, then surely the PS10 is good enough? Isnt it?! I only have my Albion TCT35 and the pedalboard which runs off the Cioks DC-8

Norman86 soooo... i managed to wangle an old deal that fell through... picked up a samson pb10 a few minutes ago! came with a whole bunch of iec cables and a usb gooseneck light! very lekker hey... will test it out on the weekend! it will eventually be fixed to my amp stand!
Mr-M Been using a compact 10A Furman for the last 6 months with great reliable results. Use it for my pedalboard and amp and carry it around in my cable bag instead of a power strip.
Paddy Just an update. Got hold of a mains tester, house is earthed to my amazement. They also fixed up all the wires on the electric fence. Nothing is touching. But there are still ticks coming through on the amp. So a PS10 will be my next gear purchase ASAP. ? Lets hope it'll remove some of the noise, and keep my babies safe from the nasty surges and blackouts we are experiencing at the moment. Thanks for the help and insight.

Have they put a separation transformer between the net and the generator? Have they put the generator on a separate earth spike? Please don't count on the 'magic black box' to solve everything automagically.
