Surge protection would be my #1 priority (it's the reason I have power conditioning equipment). Of course, I'm also in tornado alley with overhead electrical service to my home, and so am used to seeing a good number of storms hitting the area with potential for lightning strikes and falling trees. Sonic benefits from power conditioning itself are going to be minor compared to other changes that you can make.
