Why not just spend the bucks and get a whole house surge/arc protector? That seems cheaper in the long run instead of going piecemeal. You may even be able to get a discount on your home insurance.

Your assumptions about being close to overload are correct IF all the machines were being played simultaneously, and they all drew max power at the same time, and even then, the current draw would have to be long enough for the long time trip to activate. I think that’s highly unlikely.
Approximately 1800 watts vs. 2400 watts for available load (15 amp vs 20 amp)
Look on the manuals and add up all the watts you would be putting on each circuit - that should give you an idea.
The bigger question would be what size feeder wire you used to run the circuits. Hopefully something larger than 16 gauge
