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?

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. p l liiIsolated Clean Power Digital Filters/ibr 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. /lip liiIsolated Clean Power Video Filters/ibr 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. /lip liiIsolated Clean Power Analog Audio Filters/ibr 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. /lip liiIsolated Clean Power Ultra-High Current Filter/ibr Optimized for maximum noise rejection, ultra-high current filters provide maximum current to high power components such as surround sound amplifiers. /li/lp bReference Home Theater Power/bbr 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). brbr 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. brbr 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. brbr bGet All The Performance You Paid For/bbr With Monster Power's Home Theatre Reference PowerCenters, you'll get the best possible audio and video performance from your home theater system.

Product Description
When you consider the value of your new HDTV and your home-theater system, the price of the Monster Cable Home Theatre Reference PowerCenter HTS 3600 MK2 is well worth the assurance of protecting your components from electrical surges. It also helps your system perform better overall. Many so-called ?power conditioners? only protect against random power surges and/or voltage spikes. But, in fact, AC power line noise and noise generated by other components is an equally harmful and constant threat to performance. These disturbances can cause inferior picture quality marred with video streaking, lower resolution and video bandwidth. Many power conditioners' outlets often can't handle the peak transient current capacity that high power amplifiers demand. As a result, dynamic distortion and loss of peak power can occur, preventing your amplifiers from ever maximizing their performance. p 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. The PowerCenter features component-assigned color coding with matching power cord labels for easy identification, and is rackmountable, for easy integration into custom installed rackmount systems. 6500 joule rating provides a high level of surge absorption

5 out of 5 stars great product   November 9, 2008
Vladimir Ivanov (USA, Nevada)
Only consern that I have is why this item comes with only 5 year warranty on all attached equipment?


4 out of 5 stars Just what I wanted!   November 5, 2008
Peter S. Scherkenbach (Jacksonville, FL United States)
This Monster Power center had all the features I was looking for. It does not disappoint. No problems with the device or the service. Got it for a steal on Amazon.


5 out of 5 stars Does what it suppose to do   October 23, 2008
Josepth T. (TX, USA)
I needed a good surge and line conditioner to help clean up some of the interference in my AV system, and the hts 3600 did just that. Once I had everything connected to it, and turned on my hdtv, the artifacts were gone! The picture was completely clear, and in addition to that, my radio reception static noise on the am reception was gone as well! There was a slight hum on the first unit I recieved from amazon, but I sent it back and got another unit and the loud hum is gone now as well, and has worked flawlessly for the past month or so. As far as audio improvements goes, I did notice a reduction in graininess at the end of each note on female vocals, and the bass did become slightly cleaner sounding. For 250 bucks and for it to do all that plus protect my gear from surges, is well worth the 250 bucks spent!

A full power unit that functions and looks well. Takes your worries away. br /I recommend not putting your cable into it as the image power may be decreased. Plug everything else into it.


5 out of 5 stars Only buy online   September 29, 2008

This item is great if you get it for the price I paid online, $250. I have been in several retail stores that sell the exact same model for $500. So definitely get it online. You will not be disappointed.
