I know they're supposed to be reputable, but has anyone had bad experience with Furman? I bought this thing in May, and last night while working I get a loud *pop* followed by plumes of acrid, poison-smelling smoke billowing out of the thing. Interestingly, the computer and synth I was using never lost power while this thing was giving me it's best Three Mile Island impression.
This is the second unit I've had in 3 months, all bought from a large local dealer. When I opened the first unit, I noticed that the faceplate was all bent outwards near the rocker switch -- maybe a shipping problem? I promptly returned the first one to avoid any "lingering issues" down the road.... little did I know the second one would turn out to be no better than a $2 bottle rocket. What's up with that?
