How long have you been using that surge protector? It will degrade over time.

My Sony home theater system also kena last year during the crazy lightning week. No UPS or surge protector can help when the grounding/earthing can't disperse a lightning strike that's beyond capacity. Luckily my TV and PS4 was fine. Now I unplug everything to be on the safe side when I'm out lol.
