Thunder, Lightning and your audio system

Having liked in the Lightning capital of the world ( central Florida)for 53 years, if mother nature wants your equipment, then she will get to it regardless of the protection you have. I have my home protected by the Florida Power with their spec'd ground plan, their surge protectors, my internal protection by Furman and yet, mother nature came in after it it a tree and got my TV, microwave and amp. Of course the warranty plan through my power company replaced my equipment. So when mother nature comes calling with lightning which can soar to temperatures of approximately 50,000°, five times hotter than the surface of the sun, and can contain as much as 200 million volts of electricity stand back and hope your protection holds.
