Amazon.com 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. |

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 faster 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 important with the advent of HDTV. In addition, all PowerCenters display current draw and voltage.
Monster recognizes that convenience is vital, too. The PowerCenters feature component-assigned color coding with matching power cord labels for easy identification, and all are rack mountable, for easy integration into custom installed rack mount systems.

Plus HTS 850 has two sets of coaxial connections and 1 phone line so you can hook up your satellite receiver, cable box or HDTV antenna for total home theater system protection. Best of all, unlike other surge protectors, Monster's ultra-low-loss RF circuitry provides maximum protection with virtually no signal loss.

 I'ts a Power Stripp March 3, 2010
Daniel Bailey (Georgia)
My existing surge protector had a very weak HD single for some reason, but it was 10 years old, and it's possible that this TV was on the last and longest cable run in the house. Purchased this unit over a $25 unit, and it works fine, weak single problem resolved, One item to note it did come with a high end RGB6 Coaxial cable, 3 feet, which runs around $8-10 if purchased, It may have come with a phone line too, but I can't remember. SO you factor in the cable and the fact that it might deliver 10% of what it promise, it's not a bad unit. I don't have the buzzing problem others have mention, and I have a number of items plugged into the unit, 52" TV, Receiver, DVD Player, playstation, and sub. I have a UPS pluged into another outlet on the same circuit, powering my Gigabyte switch, Homer server, wireless access point, and media player, all items are located in a built in. Oh, and the blue light is a bit annoying, I have the surger mounted to the back wall of my bult in, and had to arrnage my items to cover the light to the serge protector, its blinding.
 Is it really worth it? January 21, 2010
A Garcia (California)
I bought this becuase of the hype..Clean power equals better picture and sound. Sales guys say it does make a difference--real world answer for me at least is that I could not differentiate between my cheapie $15 surge protector and this Monster Cable PowerCenter. I dont think I would buy this again. Probably go with a cheaper version next time.
 Buzzing Noise December 14, 2009

It seems like a nice product, but when I plug it in, there is a high pitched buzzing noise. It is quite loud. Will be sending it back and hopefully a replacement will perform better.

To me, a power strip is a power strip. I can't tell the difference with some of them but I figured with a new plasma, why take the chance of ruining a $2k item. figured I would get something rated for more joule surge protection. I like the way they have everything pre-labeled so you know which cord is which. That is probably what really sold me on this one. It was much cheaper getting it from here than your local stores. Like 40% cheaper. One thing the company says is it regulates power so there is no flicker on the TV. I do not see any but really have not experienced that before?
The pros: Color coded and labeled outlets, plenty of plug spots, high rated joule protection
The cons: The blue power light is pretty bright (like a night light), You can't plug in "power pack" plugs
One complaint to "Cable Companies" is they say you can't run the cable into a surge protector because it interferes with the updates and communication between their computer and the box. So I do not care about their box so I just run everything going "out" of the box through the surge protector instead of going into it.
 Improvement in Video and Audio worth full Price October 27, 2009
Dr. M. Dixon (Tucson, AZ USA)
I bought this on Amazon for 1/3 the MSRP but the improvement in picture and sound after moving all my home entertainment plugs from a surge protector to this was so great to be worth full price or more! I am very happy with this picture. I now feel like I don't need to tweak it anymore!
