The Furman Merit Series M-8Lx Power Conditioner is the ideal low-cost AC protection and power management solution for any rack-mount audio, studio, DJ, or live sound system. Install the M-8Lx in the top slot of your rack, and its eight switched rear-panel outlets will safely power and protect all connected equipment—supporting loads up to 15 amps.
Designed specifically for dark environments such as stages, control rooms, and studios, the M-8Lx features two slide-out, swiveling rack lights with adjustable brightness. These lamps provide discreet illumination for your rack gear while staying completely out of the audience’s line of sight.
