AC and RCA surge protection

The PANAMAX MD2-RCA protects a subwoofer and the RCA signal path between it and an audio receiver. It provides a protected AC outlet rated at 120V with a 1350 J suppression rating. A separate RCA module connects via a patch cable to shield the audio line. This suits home-theatre owners who run a sub on a different wall outlet from their main rack.

Installation notes

Plug the main unit into the subwoofer's wall outlet and connect the subwoofer to its protected AC socket. Run an RCA patch cable from the main unit to the companion module placed near the receiver. Ground the RCA module to the ground lug on a Panamax line conditioner. The only common issue is forgetting that ground connection, which leaves the signal path unprotected.

Pre-order checklist

Confirm the subwoofer outlet supplies 120V AC power. Verify you have a spare RCA patch cable long enough to bridge the two locations. Ensure a Panamax line conditioner with a ground lug is present in the rack for the RCA module grounding requirement. Check that the receiver and subwoofer use standard RCA connectors for the audio link.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the surge protector is actively protecting my subwoofer and RCA signal path after installation?

The unit provides a protected AC outlet for the subwoofer and protected RCA inputs and outputs for the audio signal. A separate RCA module connects via patch cable to extend protection to the equipment rack, and the module should be grounded to the ground lug on a Panamax line conditioner.

What is included in the box and what must I purchase separately to complete the installation?

The package contains the main surge protector with a protected AC outlet and RCA connections, plus a separate RCA protection module. You must supply an RCA patch cable to link the two units and a Panamax line conditioner to ground the module's ground lug.

Which voltage and joule rating version of this surge protector should I choose for my 120V subwoofer setup?

This model is rated for 120V input and provides 1350 J of AC surge suppression, making it the appropriate choice for standard North American subwoofer and audio-component installations.
