Part of Furman’s popular Merit Series, the M-8X2 is the ideal low-cost power conditioning solution for rack systems that do not require lighting features.

Ideal Applications
Instrument Rigs
Plugging your preamps, effects, or tuners directly into a wall outlet can put your rig at risk. The M-8X2 provides Furman's standard surge and spike protection, defending your equipment from the unstable power commonly found in rehearsal spaces and venues. Built-in RFI/EMI filtration helps reduce pops, hum, crackles, and interference—so your tone stays clean.
Recording Studios
Unwanted noise in your audio chain? Dirty AC power can raise the noise floor in your console or DAW. The M-8X2’s filtration reduces AC line noise while its surge protection keeps sensitive digital gear safe. With nine outlets and 15A capacity, it can power most home or project studio setups.
DJ & Live Event Gear
Bars, clubs, and event venues often have poor-quality AC due to compressors, lighting rigs, and shared circuits. The M-8X2’s surge suppression and noise filtration help stabilize your power source, preventing performance interruptions and protecting your DJ controller, mixer, and powered speakers.
Pro Audio & Mobile Systems
When you're gigging or running portable PA rigs, you never know what type of power you’ll encounter. Furman's standard filtration and surge protection help ensure your gear stays safe and sounds clean—whether you're setting up for a live show, a corporate event, or a church service.
