No noise w Guitar/Audio Interface any longer
I have a basic 1st gen Focusrite Scarlett interface with a guitar plugged into it. For ages I couldn't understand why some people on YouTube have managed to get good tones with various Amp Sims, my setup was just too noisy and fuzzy. I've tried with a DI Box, took care of clipping, nothing helped. I've installed this power conditioner and boom, the noise was gone. And I'm not talking about placebo effect: my girlfriend instantly noticed the difference without me giving her heads up. It's day and night.
In a nutshell: if you're living in an old building with shitty electricity, have a guitar and you'd like to use it with an audio interface only, you need to buy this thing.

Power for the rack
I use this to power the following devices:
- Power distributor (to power the pedalboard)
- Lexicon reverb
- Engl e840
- Engl e530
- Peavey Rockmaster
It is a super solid little 1u device that has 8 three pin connectors on the back to power your devices. There is also one on the front which is handy!
The power cable is not attached to the device which in my opinion is great as you may need to replace it due to wear or accidental crushing by heavy equipment xD Or even if you take it abroad, just plug a local power cable in and done.
It comes with a few power cables in the box so you can get started strait away. They are quite long so if you are powering devices in a rack, they are easily long enough.
It is currently doing it's job and I have nothing to moan about

It is the electrical heart of the studio. I connected my best quality and expensive devices to it. I am very satisfied. If you want to send healthy electricity to your devices, it is a price / performance product that you can choose with peace of mind.

Simple and effective
This is a simple, sensible way to handle power distribution for a rack. In a bid to do away with a rats' nest of cabling, I installed one of these in the base of each of my 19" rack bays, and spent a happy afternoon carefully looming power cables down to the power conditioner and audio cables up to the mixing desk area, keeping the two sets as separate as possible The AHPCS10 does require you to either rewire to IEC, or buy IEC leads; but it keeps things very tidy and packs a lot of outputs into a small space. The conditioning element is really useful, since the mains current in my building can be spiky and noisy; with this in line, I'm reassured that the pricier synths are protected and will function well. All in all it's a simple, unobtrusive little piece of kit that does its job well.

Solid option for the price
I'm using this to power some external pre-amps and some computer equipment.
It's easy to use, includes a number of cables and is a sturdy solid piece. Easy to see when it's left on too with the giant orange button on the front. The front facing outlet is really useful too as I sometimes pull out the odd piece I wouldn't use everyday (tape machine, synth etc) and pop it on my desk and there's a power outlet right there. Kudos to whomever thought of that.
I've had no issues with surges etc. I'm in a new build and the power seems to be very good anyway. I bought this as an extra precaution for some of my vintage gear. To be able to turn it all on and off with one switch is helpful too.
I've very little negative to say. It does exactly what I expected and exactly what it mentioned it would do. I've had no issue with it at all.

Sturdy and serves it's purpose very well
Sturdy, light weight (compared to some of it's similar class) and does the trick. I got rid of noises due to electrical issues in my band's rehearsal room. 9 connectors total and it came with the needed cabling to power your rack devices. I really recommend this piece of equipment.

Unbeatable in this price range
A power conditioner is a must.
Now - there are quite expensive units of very high quality. What I needed was good quality for fair price. And that exactly I found in the AHPCS10.
No noise and distortion. Nicely filtered power is delivered to connected devices.
I am using it at home, so cannot tell how sensitive is this device to huge lights at some venues, but for me it's doing great job.
AHPCS10 gives you also nice bit of flexibility having one socket in front. Great device.

Very solid
Affordable and high quality price.
It reduced the noise from my monitors. The building where I live is near an antenna.
Plus I don't even got yet "shield" monitor cable.
