Brownouts are of course more critical with computers that can loose data, but the worst that can happen with a typical brownout with audio gear is that the processor may lock up, in which case you would just need to turn the gear off and then on again to reset it. My 950 looses it's display dimming setting and my Sony DVD player looses it's preference settings when the power is completely lost, but not during brownouts.
