I actually bought this one. I only needed two outlets on it for the DacMagic and my Jade. It emphasizes that it is for video, but it is still a high quality surge suppression unit and also will clean up AC power noise.
Not sure how it compares to the Belkin Isolator, but I may try and find one of those for cheap as well if I can.

That one looks very sophisticated - more so than my 8 plug board, if you told me these things improve sound quality a couple of months ago I would have thought you were smoking too much weed. The changes were so obvious, the sound stabilised, there was a fuzzines in the uppermidrange and treble that I never knew was there until it was gone, the liquidity and smoothness, detail and noisefloor all improved - its not one of those subjective improvements - it was absolute.
People think because they attend concerts or play an instrument or is a sound engineer or heard really expensive systems qualify them as some kind of expert in the field. Everyone can be an "expert" as everyone here has ears and has the highest levels of reference material to realise how crap all equipment sounds. I don;t think any technology can reproduce the sound of Mack truck, I have heard this millions of times and I know all this gear we aspire to is still crap.
