Q. "Does the CMX-6 also provide for surge protection?

A. To a degree. All of our gear has surge protection built in, so if we added additional MOVs to the blocks it could limit the peak rise time of the current. Instead of using MOVs the Common mode chokes and caps (which are used to filter out the noise) will resist the change in voltage which will act as a surge suppressor should it get really high without limiting the dynamic characteristics needed to give the amps what they need."

Fortunately, the kinds of weather phenomena you describe are rare here in SoCal. I think we've had lightening twice in the last three or four years.
