NuForce amps doesn't need special line conditioner so any decent surge protector with noise filtering will do (Monster Cable has a $200-$300 unit).
Or just go with a $40 surge protector you can find at any electronic store

. You might want to get a good shield power cable (you can order the shield power cable that comes with Ref 9 for $20 for your Ref 8b if you decide to go with a cheap surge protector).

Kevin at DIY Cable sells an excellent conditioner/surge protector... http://www.diycable.com/main/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=536
vastly superior to the 15 cent parts included in the mass market junk!

You could try an Eichman Powerstip with your choice of powercord or a Naim Wiremold.

Dirt cheap.

Thanks for the recommendations. We are more of a technology company than traditional audio company so we haven't spent as much time evaluating all kinds of interconnects, cables, power strips, speakers, source components etc. That's the job of the dealers and reviewers

We focus all our effort on R&D to bring rapid innovation and more products to the market.
