Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description The fact is, analog audio equipment is sensitive to a different type of noise than video, just as video is sensitive to a different type of noise than digital, and so on. In the past, manufacturers have used filters to combat the problem of noise introduced via power sources. Unfortunately, the filters were not optimized to attenuate at the different frequencies that are unique to digital, analog audio, and video realms. Products that managed to deliver truly cleaner AC power were thousands of dollars in price, out of reach for most people. Enter Head Monster Noel Lee. An uncompromising audiophile, Lee joined forces with Richard Marsh, the world’s foremost expert on AC power, to develop affordable solutions to AC power problems. The result? Monster Clean Power.

More Than Just Surge! -Monster Clean Power
The following overviews of Monster’s isolated, specially tuned Clean Power filters demonstrate the methodology behind Clean Power’s development. The higher the Clean Power stage, the more advanced the noise filtration. The more advanced the noise filtration, the higher the level of component-to-component isolation.

  • Isolated Clean Power Digital Filters
    Optimized to reduce noise generated by digital equipment digital filters isolate digital components from connected analog audio and video components for maximum rejection of interference.
  • Isolated Clean Power Video Filters
    Optimized to reduce noise generated by video equipment, video filters isolate video components from connected digital and analog audio components for maximum rejection of interference.
  • Isolated Clean Power Analog Audio Filters
    Optimized to provide maximum noise rejection for sensitive analog audio components, audio filters isolates audio components from connected digital and video components for maximum rejection of interference.
  • Isolated Clean Power Ultra-High Current Filter
    Optimized for maximum noise rejection, ultra-high current filters provide maximum current to high power components such as surround sound amplifiers.
  • Reference Home Theater Power
    Monster PowerCenters also offer the most comprehensive home theater system protection available, featuring higher joule ratings for quicker acting, full capacity surge protection. Monster’s Multiple SurgeGuard and Tri-Mode Circuitry instantly detects any voltage surge or spike and immediately suppresses it before it can reach your components. And, for your total peace of mind, the latest generation of Monster Home Theatre Reference PowerCenters come with higher Connected Equipment Guarantees (CEGs).

    Unlike other surge protectors, the PowerCenters’ ultra low-loss RF circuitry provides maximum protection with virtually no signal loss, especially vital with the advent of HDTV. In addition, all PowerCenters show current draw and voltage.

    Monster recognizes that convenience is vital, too. The PowerCenters feature component-assigned color coding with matching power cord marks for simple identification, and all are rack mountable, for simple integration into custom installed rack mount systems.

    Excellent Choice For A Excellent Price

    This product is definately worth the money.

    Cleaner power reduces visible noise in television screen images, as well as the hiss you hear coming from your speakers when you have them turned up. Also, every thing connected to this surge protector is insured to over $350,000, an amount likely to cover nearly any home entertainment system that any of us non-millionaires can afford.

    With that said I do have to criticisms: Firstly, although the bright blue power light is attractive and makes the HTS850 look expensive, it can be a tad on the bright side, lighting up the space behind your t.v. cabinet when you have the lights dimmed. Secondly, other than the plugs on the top and bottom, all of the plugs are located on the right side of the unit, making plugging in all of your devices a bit of a hassle, epsecially if they have large plugs.

    Over all it is an brilliant product which I would recommend to anyone looking to protect the entertainment investment.
    Works fantastic!

    I used this to hook up my new plasma TV and entertainment center. I has enough plugs for the TV, DVD player, Satellite box, Stereo Receiver, Amplifier, X-Box, Nintendo Wi and network router. Everything works fantastic, and I have made it thru several severe storms without even worrying about power surge.

    It's hard to gauge what makes a excellent versus fantastic surge protector but it seems to be well built and simple to mount or place in your entertainment center. One thing I thought they would have done for a product of this price range would be to have a rotating plug (one that swivels). This one is I believe angled to the right but my entertainment center is to the left so not a help to me.
    Fantastic Value

    I now have 2 of this particular model. I have many of the Monster surge protectors and reckon that they are the perfect mate for any home theater application.

    This particular model is nice because you can hang it on the wall (included bracket) and the wires plug in sideways, allowing home theater furniture to be placed closer to the wall. You could even get away with hanging it behind a flat panel TV mounted on the wall!

    Clean Power Surges are awesome!
    Perfect home theater power!!
