I agree as well. Why not take the extra step to try and protect something that is hard to replace? Yes, pro and con. It's an insurance policy.
Our entire A/V system is protected, cleaned and filtered by a Furman DSP Model IT-Reference 7. In part, we credit the longevity of a 6 year old flat panel which is run 18 hours a day, every day since purchase with over 39K hours on it. That plus doing an ISF calibration to tone down the retina burning images of an off the self unit.
There is a service tag from 1966 in the CTC7 cabinet. I've been told the set sat idle for many years in a controlled AC environment. The set when purchased was stuck,on channel 10.
