Pros & Cons
Pros
The reverse of this item has one nema 5-15 male plug and one plastic piece/guide-pin. Both sides swivel. I love that the outlets pivot so the console can sit close to the wall. I like that this links directly into a socket without a cable.
Cons
If you plug more than a couple of light items into it, it falls out of the socket which it is plugged into. It only fully plugs into one of the two sockets behind it and it has one plastic ground prong which plugs into the other socket.
After some researching it appears our tripp lite 6 didn't protect our tv like i thought it was have. The product description falsely claims it protects to 1500 joules.

Price
Great price, great protection rating, and versatile.
Your subwoofer costed between $100 and $1000.
Depending on severity subwoofers can be serviceable between $100 and $200.
Shipping
Shipper left inside my mailbox, dry and secure.
Packaging/appearance
The actual joules is clearly marked on the box as 1200 joules.
Competitiveness
Most importantly, this has one of the highest energy absorption ratings of any direct plug-in surge protector on the market.
I trust tripp lite, it is a well known brand in the it world.
Unfortunately, the tripp-lite company makes this product in china.
The tripp-lite website also lists this product as 1200 joules.

As far as a surge protector nothing is going protect your electronics from a lightning strike

You need to unplug all electronics from the outlets

I don’t even think turning off your breakers will work because a close enough lightning strike will arc across the contacts in the breaker because the ground to the outlet is still in contact
