Is there any real reason to buy one of the higher end/UPS surge protectors?
I am having the local home theatre store install some in-wall speakers for me and to set up the cabling and such for my system.
The have recommended a $300 UPS-based surge protector and i think that is crazy when my receiver is an Onyo SR-606 and my plasma is a good 50" Panasonic, but it isn't like I couldn't easily replace it for less that $2K.
I think they're trying to sell me a higher margin item and that my decent quality surge protector I already own should be fine.
