too bad its $85.[/quote]
A couple years ago I bought a powerstrip type gizmo that would turn on an outlet(s) when a draw was detected from a specific one. It was like $30. I used it to turn on the 2ch amp driving my center at the time. It introduced slight but very irritating distortion into whatever speaker the amp was driving. Drove me nuts troubleshooting as everything was new or newly combined- vp150,new used amp,new used processor,new player,etc. I finally removed the dam powerstrip gizmo and the distortion left.
My advice- spend more than $85, not less. Those belkin units look sweet at the price the guys on here score them for.
