Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I own one of these and one of the non-signature series (red display).
(this is the same review that I wrote for the other ASV 2000)
If you invested a big pile of dough on a home A/V set up, why not feed it correctly. In the US our components are designed to run on 120 volts. But most average neighborhoods fluctuate (+ or -) 3 - 4 volts at all times. On really hot nights where everyone has their A/C on, it can fluctuate up to 8 or 9 volts.
This bad boy locks everything in at an even 120 volts. So your TV or stereo isn't having to make the adjustments itself, it can just focus on performing without any power stress.
As others have noted, make sure to use a good quality surge protector. I personally use the Monster HTS 3600 MKII.
My favorite part is the big displays. I find myself just watching the voltage readout it to see what the power rating is. The voltage display just tells you what you are feeding your components. The amp display helps you keep an eye out if you might have left a component on and didn't mean to. My kids are always leaving the DVD player or stereo on. If you notice a high amp readout, you know something was left on. My components are behind dark glass, it is hard to see if items are left on.
This 75 lb. beast will take up some space and has to be put on a very strong shelf. You will reserve the "lowest" shelf for your entertainment system for this bad boy. Consider it the anchor of your system.
